2. The Lord told him:
3. “Leave here and travel eastward. Hide out in the Kerith Valley near the Jordan.
4. Drink from the stream; I have already told the ravens to bring you food there.”
5. So he did as the Lord told him; he went and lived in the Kerith Valley near the Jordan.
6. The ravens would bring him bread and meat each morning and evening, and he would drink from the stream.
7. After a while, the stream dried up because there had been no rain in the land.
8. The Lord told him,
9. “Get up, go to Zarephath in Sidonian territory, and live there. I have already told a widow who lives there to provide for you.”
