1 Kings 17

17
1And Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah] the Tishbi [captivity], [who was] of the inhabitants of Gil’ad [Rocky Region], said unto Ach’av [father’s brother], [As] the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.
2And the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) came unto him, saying,
3Get youi hence, and turn youi eastward, and hide yourself by the brook K’rit [cutting], that [is] before Yarden [Descender].
4And it shall be, [that] youi shall drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed youi there.
5So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate): for he went and dwelt by the brook K’rit [cutting], that [is] before Yarden [Descender].
6And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.
7And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.
8And the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) came unto him, saying,
9Arise, get youi to Tzarfat [refinery], which [belongs] to Tzidon [Hunting], and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain youi.
10So he arose and went to Tzarfat [refinery]. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman [was] there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray youi, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
11And as she was going to fetch [it], he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray youi, a morsel of bread in youri hand.
12And she said, [As] the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youri God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] lives, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a pot: and, behold, I [am] gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
13And Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah] said unto her, Fear not; go [and] do as youi have said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring [it] unto me, and after make for youi and for youri son.
14For thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the pot of oil fail, until the day [that] the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) send rain upon the earth.
15And she went and did according to the saying of Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah]: and she, and he, and her house, did eat [many] days.
16 [And] the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the pot of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), which he spoke by Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah].
17And it came to pass after these things, [that] the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.
18And she said unto Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah], What have I to do with youi, O youi man of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]? are youi come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son?
19And he said unto her, Give me youri son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
20And he cried unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and said, O Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) my God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], have youi also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
21And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and said, O Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) my God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], I pray youi, let this child’s soul come into him again.
22And the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) heard the voice of Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah]; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
23And Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah] took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah] said, See, youri son lives.
24And the woman said to Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah], Now by this I know that youi [are] a man of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], [and] that the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) in youri mouth [is] truth.
