The verses around it, from 1 Kings 17.
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.”

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:
9 “Get up and go to Zarephath of Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”
10 So Elijah got up and went to Zarephath. When he arrived at the city gate, there was a widow gathering sticks. Elijah called to her and said, “Please bring me a little water in a cup, so that I may drink.”
11 And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread.”
