1 Kings 17:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Elijah was a prophet from the town of Tishbe in Gilead. He said to King Ahab, "I serve the Lord, the God of Israel. By his power, I promise that no dew or rain will fall for the next few years. The rain will fall only when I command it to fall."
2 Then the Lord said to Elijah,
3 "Leave this place and go east. Hide near Kerith Ravine, on the east of the Jordan River.
4 You can get your water from that stream, and I have commanded ravens to bring food to you there."
5 So Elijah did what the Lord told him to do. He went to live near Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan River.
6 Ravens brought Elijah food every morning and every evening, and he drank water from the stream.
7 There was no rain, so after a while the stream became dry.
8 Then the Lord said to Elijah,
9 "Go to Zarephath in Sidon and stay there. There is a widow there that I commanded to take care of you."
10 So Elijah went to Zarephath. He went to the town gate and saw a woman there gathering wood for a fire. She was a widow. Elijah said to her, "Would you bring me a small cup water to drink?"
11 As she was going to get the water, Elijah said, "Bring me a piece of bread too, please."
12 The woman answered, "I promise you, before the Lord your God, that I have nothing but a handful of flour in a jar and a little bit of olive oil in a jug. I came here to gather a few pieces of wood for a fire to cook our last meal. My son and I will eat it and then die from hunger."
13 Elijah said to the woman, "Don't worry. Go home and cook your food as you said. But first make a small piece of bread from the flour that you have and bring it to me. Then cook some for yourself and your son.
14 The Lord, the God of Israel, says, 'That jar of flour will never be empty and the jug will always have oil in it. This will continue until the day the Lord sends rain to the land.'"
15 So the woman went home and did what Elijah told her to do. And Elijah, the woman, and her son had enough food for a long time.
16 The jar of flour and the jug of oil were never empty. This happened just as the Lord said through Elijah.
17 Some time later the woman's son became sick. He became worse and worse until he stopped breathing.
18 Then the woman said to Elijah, "You are a man of God. Can you help me? Or did you come here only to remind me of my sins and to make my son die?"
19 Elijah said to her, "Give me your son." He took the boy from her and carried him upstairs. He laid him on the bed in the room where he was staying.
20 Then Elijah prayed, "Lord my God, this widow is letting me stay in her house. Will you do this bad thing to her? Will you cause her son to die?"
21 Then Elijah lay on top of the boy three times. He prayed, "Lord my God, let this boy live again!"
22 The Lord answered Elijah's prayer. The boy began breathing again and was alive.
23 Elijah carried the boy downstairs, gave him to his mother, and said, "Look, your son is alive!"
24 The woman answered, "Now I know that you really are a man from God. I know that the Lord really speaks through you!"
1 And Elijah H452 the Tishbite, H8664 who was of the inhabitants H4480 H8453 of Gilead, H1568 said H559 unto H413 Ahab, H256 As the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 liveth, H2416 before H6440 whom H834 I stand, H5975 there shall not H518 be H1961 dew H2919 nor rain H4306 these H428 years, H8141 but H3588 H518 according H6310 to my word. H1697
2 And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 him, saying, H559
3 Get H1980 thee hence H4480 H2088 , and turn H6437 thee eastward, H6924 and hide thyself H5641 by the brook H5158 Cherith, H3747 that H834 is before H5921 H6440 Jordan. H3383
4 And it shall be, H1961 that thou shalt drink H8354 of the brook H4480 H5158 ; and I have commanded H6680 the ravens H6158 to feed H3557 thee there. H8033
5 So he went H1980 and did H6213 according unto the word H1697 of the LORD: H3068 for he went H1980 and dwelt H3427 by the brook H5158 Cherith, H3747 that H834 is before H5921 H6440 Jordan. H3383
6 And the ravens H6158 brought H935 him bread H3899 and flesh H1320 in the morning, H1242 and bread H3899 and flesh H1320 in the evening; H6153 and he drank H8354 of H4480 the brook. H5158
7 And it came to pass H1961 after H4480 H7093 a while, H3117 that the brook H5158 dried up, H3001 because H3588 there had been H1961 no H3808 rain H1653 in the land. H776
8 And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 him, saying, H559
9 Arise H6965 , get H1980 thee to Zarephath, H6886 which H834 belongeth to Zidon, H6721 and dwell H3427 there: H8033 behold, H2009 I have commanded H6680 a widow H490 woman H802 there H8033 to sustain H3557 thee.
10 So he arose H6965 and went H1980 to Zarephath. H6886 And when he came H935 to H413 the gate H6607 of the city, H5892 behold, H2009 the widow H490 woman H802 was there H8033 gathering H7197 of sticks: H6086 and he called H7121 to H413 her , and said, H559 Fetch H3947 me , I pray thee, H4994 a little H4592 water H4325 in a vessel, H3627 that I may drink. H8354
11 And as she was going H1980 to fetch H3947 it , he called H7121 to H413 her , and said, H559 Bring H3947 me , I pray thee, H4994 a morsel H6595 of bread H3899 in thine hand. H3027
12 And she said, H559 As the LORD H3068 thy God H430 liveth, H2416 I have H3426 not H518 a cake, H4580 but H3588 H518 a handful H4393 H3709 of meal H7058 in a barrel, H3537 and a little H4592 oil H8081 in a cruse: H6835 and, behold, H2009 I am gathering H7197 two H8147 sticks, H6086 that I may go in H935 and dress H6213 it for me and my son, H1121 that we may eat H398 it , and die. H4191
13 And Elijah H452 said H559 unto H413 her, Fear H3372 not; H408 go H935 and do H6213 as thou hast said: H1697 but H389 make H6213 me thereof H4480 H8033 a little H6996 cake H5692 first, H7223 and bring H3318 it unto me , and after H314 make H6213 for thee and for thy son. H1121
14 For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 The barrel H3537 of meal H7058 shall not H3808 waste, H3615 neither H3808 shall the cruse H6835 of oil H8081 fail, H2637 until H5704 the day H3117 that the LORD H3068 sendeth H5414 rain H1653 upon H5921 H6440 the earth. H127
15 And she went H1980 and did H6213 according to the saying H1697 of Elijah: H452 and she, H1931 and he, H1931 and her house, H1004 did eat H398 many days. H3117
16 And the barrel H3537 of meal H7058 wasted H3615 not, H3808 neither H3808 did the cruse H6835 of oil H8081 fail, H2637 according to the word H1697 of the LORD, H3068 which H834 he spoke H1696 by H3027 Elijah. H452
17 And it came to pass H1961 after H310 these H428 things, H1697 that the son H1121 of the woman, H802 the mistress H1172 of the house, H1004 fell sick; H2470 and his sickness H2483 was H1961 so H3966 sore, H2389 that H5704 H834 there was no H3808 breath H5397 left H3498 in him.
18 And she said H559 unto H413 Elijah, H452 What H4100 have I to do with thee , O thou man H376 of God H430 ? art thou come H935 unto H413 me to call H853 my sin H5771 to remembrance, H2142 and to slay H4191 H853 my son H1121 ?
19 And he said H559 unto H413 her, Give H5414 me H853 thy son. H1121 And he took H3947 him out of her bosom H4480 H2436 , and carried him up H5927 into H413 a loft, H5944 where H834 H8033 he H1931 abode, H3427 and laid H7901 him upon H5921 his own bed. H4296
20 And he cried H7121 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 and said, H559 O LORD H3068 my God, H430 hast thou also H1571 brought evil H7489 upon H5921 the widow H490 with H5973 whom H834 I H589 sojourn, H1481 by slaying H4191 H853 her son H1121 ?
21 And he stretched himself H4058 upon H5921 the child H3206 three H7969 times, H6471 and cried H7121 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 and said, H559 O LORD H3068 my God, H430 I pray thee, H4994 let this H2088 child's H3206 soul H5315 come into him again H7725 H5921. H7130
22 And the LORD H3068 heard H8085 the voice H6963 of Elijah; H452 and the soul H5315 of the child H3206 came into him again H7725 H5921, H7130 and he revived. H2421
23 And Elijah H452 took H3947 H853 the child, H3206 and brought him down H3381 out of H4480 the chamber H5944 into the house, H1004 and delivered H5414 him unto his mother: H517 and Elijah H452 said, H559 See, H7200 thy son H1121 liveth. H2416
24 And the woman H802 said H559 to H413 Elijah, H452 Now H6258 by this H2088 I know H3045 that H3588 thou H859 art a man H376 of God, H430 and that the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 in thy mouth H6310 is truth. H571
