5 So he went and did according to the word of Yahweh. He went and stayed in the Wadi Kerith which faces the Jordan.
6 The crows were bringing bread and meat in the morning for him and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the wadi.
7 It happened after a while that the wadi dried up, because there was no rain in the land.
8 Then the word of Yahweh came to him, saying,
9 “Get up and go to Zarephath which belongs to Sidon and stay there. Look, I have commanded a woman there, a widow, to sustain you.”
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath and came to the gate of the city. There was a widow woman gathering wood, so he called to her, and he said, “Please bring a little water for me in a vessel so that I can drink.”
11 She went to fetch it, and he called to her and said, “Please bring me a morsel of bread in your hand.”
