Common English Bible CEB

1 Elijah from Tishbe, who was one of the settlers in Gilead, said to Ahab, "As surely as the LORD lives, Israel's God, the one I serve, there will be neither dew nor rain these years unless I say so."

2 Then the LORD's word came to Elijah:

3 Go from here and turn east. Hide by the Cherith Brook that faces the Jordan River.

4 You can drink from the brook. I have also ordered the ravens to provide for you there.

5 Elijah went and did just what the LORD said. He stayed by the Cherith Brook that faced the Jordan River.

6 The ravens brought bread and meat in the mornings and evenings. He drank from the Cherith Brook.

New International Version NIV

1 Now Elijah the Tishbite, from Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, whom I serve, there will be neither dew nor rain in the next few years except at my word.”

2 Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah:

3 “Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan.

4 You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.”

5 So he did what the LORD had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there.

6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.
