1
And Elias the Thesbite, of the inhabitants of Galaad, said to Achab: As the Lord liveth, the God of Israel, in whose sight I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to the words of my mouth.
2
And the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
3
Get thee hence, and go towards the east, and hide thyself by the torrent of Carith, which is over against the Jordan;
4
And there thou shalt drink of the torrent: and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
5
So he went, and did according to the word of the Lord: and going, he dwelt by the torrent Carith, which is over against the Jordan.
