Now Elijah, who was from Tishbe in Gilead, told King Ahab, “As surely as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives—the God I serve—there will be no dew or rain during the next few years until I give the word!”
2
Then the LORD said to Elijah,
3
“Go to the east and hide by Kerith Brook, near where it enters the Jordan River.
4
Drink from the brook and eat what the ravens bring you, for I have commanded them to bring you food.”
5
So Elijah did as the LORD told him and camped beside Kerith Brook, east of the Jordan.
