This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

Eliyah prophesies about a coming drought

17:1 Eliyah prophesies about a coming drought

Northern kingdom

17 One day the prophet Eliyah (Elijah) from the Tishbim in the Gilead region said to Ahav, “As Yisrael’s (Israel’s) god Yahweh lives, the one who I serve, there won’t be any rain or even dew these next years unless I give the command.”[ref] 2 Then Yahweh told Eliyah, 3 “Get away from here and travel eastward towards the Kerit stream that enters the Yarden (Jordan) river to hide. 4 You’ll be able to drink from the stream, and I’ve commanded the ravens to bring food to you there.”

5 So he did what Yahweh told him, and went and lived by the Kerit stream near the Yarden. 6 Ravens brought bread and meat to him every morning and again in the evening, and he was able to drink from the stream. 7 However, the stream dried up after a while because there was no rain anywhere in the country.


17:1: Jam 5:17.
