Elisha Answers A Widow's Request
3 He told her, "Go out to all of your neighbors in the surrounding streets and borrow lots of pots from them.

As each one is filled, set it aside." 5 So she left Elisha, shut the door behind her and her children, and while they kept on bringing vessels to her, she kept on pouring oil.
