Elijah Proclaims a Drought

1 And Elijah the Tishbite, of the ainhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, b“As the Lord God of Israel lives, cbefore whom I stand, dthere shall not be dew nor rain ethese years, except at my word.”  
2 Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying,
3 “Get away from here and turn eastward, and hide by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan.
4 And it will be that you shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the aravens to feed you there.”  
5 So he went and did according to the word of the Lord, for he went and stayed by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan.
6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening; and he drank from the brook.
7 And it happened after a while that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.
