1 Kings 17:8-16 - Elijah And The Widow

⁸ And the Word of Jehovah came to him, saying, ⁹ Arise, go to Zarephath which belongs to Sidon, and live there. Behold, I have commanded a widow to keep you there. ¹⁰ And he arose and went to Zarephath, and came in to the entrance of the city, and, behold, the widow was gathering sticks. And he called to her and said, Please, bring me a little water in a vessel so that I may drink. ¹¹ And as she was going to bring it, he called to her and said, Please, bring me a piece of bread in your hand.

¹² And she said, As Jehovah your God lives, I do not have a cake, but only a handful of meal in a pitcher and a little oil in a jar. And behold, I am gathering two sticks, so that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, so that we may eat it and die.

¹³ And Elijah said to her, Do not fear, go. Do as you have said. But first make me a little cake of it, and bring it to me. And then make for you and for your son. ¹⁴ For so says Jehovah, the God of Israel, The pitcher of meal shall not be emptied, nor shall the jar of oil fail, until the day that Jehovah sends rain on the earth.

¹⁵ And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah. And she and he and her house ate many days; ¹⁶ the pitcher of meal was not consumed, and the jar of oil did not fail, according to the Word of Jehovah which He spoke by Elijah.
