He called out to her, "Please give me a cup of water, so I can take a drink." 11 As she went to get it, he called out to her, "Please bring me a piece of bread." 12 She said, "As certainly as the Lord your God lives, I have no food, except for a handful of flour in a jar and a little olive oil in a jug. Right now I am gathering a couple of sticks for a fire. Then I'm going home to make one final meal for my son and myself. After we have eaten that, we will die of starvation."
