Eliyyah prophesies about a coming drought

1Ki 17:1–7

17:1 Eliyyah prophesies about a coming drought

17One day the prophet Eliyyah (Elijah) from the Tishbites in the Gilead region said to Ahav, “As 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] 2Then Yahweh told Eliyyah, 3Get away from here and travel eastward towards the Kerit stream that enters the Yordan river to hide. 4You’ll be able to drink from the stream, and I’ve commanded the ravens to bring food to you there.”

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