3 Go from here in the direction of the east, and keep yourself in a secret place by the stream Cherith, east of Jordan.
4 The water of the stream will be your drink, and by my orders the ravens will give you food there.
5 So he went and did as the Lord said, living by the stream Cherith, east of Jordan.
6 And the ravens took him bread in the morning and meat in the evening; and the water of the stream was his drink.
7 Now after a time the stream became dry, because there was no rain in the land.
8 Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying,
9 Up! go now to Zarephath, in Zidon, and make your living-place there; I have given orders to a widow woman there to see that you have food.
