Melachim Alef 17:8 In-Context

6 And the orevvim brought him lechem and basar in the boker, and lechem and basar in the erev; and he drank of the brook.
7 And it came to pass at the ketz yamim (end of days), that the brook dried up, because there had been no geshem in the land.
8 And the Devar Hashem came unto him, saying,
9 Arise, get thee to Tzarphat, which belongeth to Tzidon, and dwell there; hinei, I have commanded an isha almanah there to sustain thee.
10 So he arose and went to Tzarphat. And when he came to the gate of the ir, hinei, the isha almanah was there gathering sticks; and he called to her, and said, Bring me a little mayim in a vessel, that I may drink.
