1st Kings Chapter 17 - King James Strong Number Version

1: And Elijah <H0452> the Tishbite, <H8664> [who was] of the inhabitants <H8453> of Gilead, <H1568> said <H0559> unto Ahab, <H0256> [As] the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of Israel <H3478> liveth, <H2416> before <H6440> whom I stand, <H5975> there shall not be dew <H2919> nor rain <H4306> these years, <H8141> but according <H6310> to my word. <H1697>
2: And the word <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> came unto him, saying, <H0559>
3: Get <H3212> thee hence, and turn <H6437> thee eastward, <H6924> and hide <H5641> thyself by the brook <H5158> Cherith, <H3747> that [is] before <H6440> Jordan. <H3383>
4: And it shall be, [that] thou shalt drink <H8354> of the brook; <H5158> and I have commanded <H6680> the ravens <H6158> to feed <H3557> thee there.
5: So he went <H3212> and did <H6213> according unto the word <H1697> of the LORD: <H3068> for he went <H3212> and dwelt <H3427> by the brook <H5158> Cherith, <H3747> that [is] before <H6440> Jordan. <H3383>
6: And the ravens <H6158> brought <H0935> him bread <H3899> and flesh <H1320> in the morning, <H1242> and bread <H3899> and flesh <H1320> in the evening; <H6153> and he drank <H8354> of the brook. <H5158>
7: And it came to pass after <H7093> a while, <H3117> that the brook <H5158> dried up, <H3001> because there had been no rain <H1653> in the land. <H0776>
8: And the word <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> came unto him, saying, <H0559>
9: Arise, <H6965> get <H3212> thee to Zarephath, <H6886> which [belongeth] to Zidon, <H6721> and dwell <H3427> there: behold, I have commanded <H6680> a widow <H0490> woman <H0802> there to sustain <H3557> thee.
10: So he arose <H6965> and went <H3212> to Zarephath. <H6886> And when he came <H0935> to the gate <H6607> of the city, <H5892> behold, the widow <H0490> woman <H0802> [was] there gathering <H7197> of sticks: <H6086> and he called <H7121> to her, and said, <H0559> Fetch <H3947> me, I pray thee, a little <H4592> water <H4325> in a vessel, <H3627> that I may drink. <H8354>
11: And as she was going <H3212> to fetch <H3947> [it], he called <H7121> to her, and said, <H0559> Bring <H3947> me, I pray thee, a morsel <H6595> of bread <H3899> in thine hand. <H3027>
12: And she said, <H0559> [As] the LORD <H3068> thy God <H0430> liveth, <H2416> I have <H3426> not a cake, <H4580> but an handful <H4393> <H3709> of meal <H7058> in a barrel, <H3537> and a little <H4592> oil <H8081> in a cruse: <H6835> and, behold, I [am] gathering <H7197> two <H8147> sticks, <H6086> that I may go in <H0935> and dress <H6213> it for me and my son, <H1121> that we may eat <H0398> it, and die. <H4191>
13: And Elijah <H0452> said <H0559> unto her, Fear <H3372> not; go <H0935> [and] do <H6213> as thou hast said: <H1697> but make <H6213> me thereof <H8033> a little <H6996> cake <H5692> first, <H7223> and bring <H3318> [it] unto me, and after <H0314> make <H6213> for thee and for thy son. <H1121>
14: For thus saith <H0559> the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of Israel, <H3478> The barrel <H3537> of meal <H7058> shall not waste, <H3615> neither shall the cruse <H6835> of oil <H8081> fail, <H2637> until the day <H3117> [that] the LORD <H3068> sendeth <H5414> rain <H1653> upon <H6440> the earth. <H0127>
15: And she went <H3212> and did <H6213> according to the saying <H1697> of Elijah: <H0452> and she, and he, and her house, <H1004> did eat <H0398> [many] days. <H3117>
16: [And] the barrel <H3537> of meal <H7058> wasted <H3615> not, neither did the cruse <H6835> of oil <H8081> fail, <H2638> according to the word <H1697> of the LORD, <H3068> which he spake <H1696> by <H3027> Elijah. <H0452>
17: And it came to pass after <H0310> these things, <H1697> [that] the son <H1121> of the woman, <H0802> the mistress <H1172> of the house, <H1004> fell sick; <H2470> and his sickness <H2483> was so <H3966> sore, <H2389> that there was no breath <H5397> left <H3498> in him.
18: And she said <H0559> unto Elijah, <H0452> What have I to do with thee, O thou man <H0376> of God? <H0430> art thou come <H0935> unto me to call my sin <H5771> to remembrance, <H2142> and to slay <H4191> my son? <H1121>
19: And he said <H0559> unto her, Give <H5414> me thy son. <H1121> And he took <H3947> him out of her bosom, <H2436> and carried him up <H5927> into a loft, <H5944> where he abode, <H3427> and laid <H7901> him upon his own bed. <H4296>
20: And he cried <H7121> unto the LORD, <H3068> and said, <H0559> O LORD <H3068> my God, <H0430> hast thou also brought evil <H7489> upon the widow <H0490> with whom I sojourn, <H1481> by slaying <H4191> her son? <H1121>
21: And he stretched <H4058> himself upon the child <H3206> three <H7969> times, <H6471> and cried <H7121> unto the LORD, <H3068> and said, <H0559> O LORD <H3068> my God, <H0430> I pray thee, let this child's <H3206> soul <H5315> come into him <H7130> again. <H7725>
22: And the LORD <H3068> heard <H8085> the voice <H6963> of Elijah; <H0452> and the soul <H5315> of the child <H3206> came into him <H7130> again, <H7725> and he revived. <H2421>
23: And Elijah <H0452> took <H3947> the child, <H3206> and brought him down <H3381> out of the chamber <H5944> into the house, <H1004> and delivered <H5414> him unto his mother: <H0517> and Elijah <H0452> said, <H0559> See, <H7200> thy son <H1121> liveth. <H2416>
24: And the woman <H0802> said <H0559> to Elijah, <H0452> Now by this <H2088> I know <H3045> that thou [art] a man <H0376> of God, <H0430> [and] that the word <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> in thy mouth <H6310> [is] truth. <H0571>
