1 Kings 17:4 in context

The verses around it, from 1 Kings 17.

1 Now Elijah the Tishbite, who was among the settlers of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As surely as the LORD lives—the God of Israel before whom I stand—there will be neither dew nor rain in these years except at my word!”

2 Then a revelation from the LORD came to Elijah:

3 “Leave here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.

4 And you are to drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”

5 So Elijah did what the LORD had told him, and he went and lived by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.

6 The ravens would bring him bread and meat in the morning and evening, and he would drink from the brook.

7 Some time later, however, the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.

8 Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah:
