1 Reis 17:7 In-Context

5 E ele fez o que o SENHOR lhe tinha dito. Foi para o riacho de Querite, a leste do Jordão, e ficou lá.
6 Os corvos lhe traziam pão e carne de manhã e de tarde, e ele bebia água do riacho.
7 Algum tempo depois, o riacho secou-se por falta de chuva.
8 Então a palavra do SENHOR veio a Elias:
9 “Vá imediatamente para a cidade de Sarepta de Sidom e fique por lá. Ordenei a uma viúva daquele lugar que lhe forneça comida”.
