1 Koningen 17:1–6

Ende Elia de Tisbiter van den inwoonderen Gileads, seyde tot Achab: [Soo waerachtich als] de HEERE de Godt Israëls leeft, voorwiens aengesicht ick stae; indien dese jaren dauw, ofte regen zijn sal, ten zy dan nae mijn woort.

Daerna geschiedde het woort des HEEREN tot hem, seggende:

Gaet wech van hier, ende wendt u nae het oosten, ende verbercht u aen de beke Crith, die voor aen de Iordane is.

Ende het sal geschieden dat ghy uyt de beke drincken sult: ende ick hebbe den raven geboden, datse u daer onderhouden sullen.

Hy ginck dan henen, ende dede nae het woort des HEEREN; want hy ginck, ende woonde by de beke Crith, die voor aen de Iordane is.

Ende de raven brachten hem des morgens broot, ende vleesch; desgelijcks broot, ende vleesch des avonts: ende hy dranck uyt de beke.


1 Kings 17:1–6

And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.

And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,

Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.

So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.
