1 Reis 17:1-6

Listen to 1 Reis 17:1-6
1 Então Elias, o tisbita, que habitava em Gileade, disse a Acabe: Vive o Senhor, Deus de Israel, em cuja presença estou, que nestes anos não haverá orvalho nem chuva, senão segundo a minha palavra.
2 Depois veio a Elias a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
3 Retira-te daqui, vai para a banda de oriente, e esconde-te junto ao ribeiro de Querite, que está ao oriente do Jordão.
4 Beberás do ribeiro; e eu tenho ordenado aos corvos que ali te sustentem.
5 Partiu, pois, e fez conforme a palavra do Senhor; foi habitar junto ao ribeiro de Querite, que está ao oriente do Jordão.
6 E os corvos lhe traziam pão e carne pela manhã, como também pão e carne � tarde; e ele bebia do ribeiro.
