1Now 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!"
“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 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 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 Elisha the Tishbite of the inhabitants of Gilead said to Ahab, as the Lord God of Israel lives before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years except at my word.”
“Now Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the settlers of Gilead, said to Ahab, as the Lord the God of Israel lives before whom I stand, surely there shall be neither dune nor rain these years except by my word.”
2Then a revelation from the LORD came to Elijah:
“the word of the Lord came to him, saying,”
“the word of the Lord came to him saying”
“the word of the Lord came to him saying,”
“And the word of the Lord came unto him saying,”
“the word of the Lord came to him saying”
“and the word of the Lord came unto him saying,”
3"Leave here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.
“get away from here and turn eastward and hide by the brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan.”
“get thee hence and turn the eastward and hide thyself by the brook Cherith that is before Jordan”
“get thee hence and turn thee eastward and hide thyself by the brook Cherith that is before Jordan.”
“Get thee hence and turn thee eastward and hide thyself by the brook Kerith that is before Jordan”
“get away from here and turn eastward. And hide by the brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan.”
“Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Sherith that is before Jordan.”
4And you are to drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there."
“you shall drink from the brook. And I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”
“And it shall be that thou shalt drink of the brook. And I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.”
“And it shall be that thou shalt drink of the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.”
“you shall drink from the brook and I have commanded the Ravens to feed you there”
“you shall drink from the brook and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”
“and It shall be that thou shalt drink of the brook and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.”
5So Elijah did what the LORD had told him, and he went and lived by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.
“So he went and did according to the word of the Lord, for he went and stayed by the brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan.”
“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.”
“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.”
“So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord for he went and dwelt by the brook Kerith that is before Jordan”
“So he went and did according to the word of the Lord, for he went and stayed by the brook Cherith. Which flows into the Jordan.”
“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.”
6The ravens would bring him bread and meat in the morning and evening, and he would drink from the brook.
“and The Ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning and bread and flesh in the evening. And he drank of the brook”
“The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening. And he drank from the brook.”
“the ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening. And he would drink from the brook.”
“And the ravens brought him bread, and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening. And he drank of the brook.”
“And the ravens brought Him bread and flesh in the morning and bread and flesh in the evening, and He drank of the brook.”
“and the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning and bread and flesh in the evening. And he drank of the brook,”
7Some time later, however, the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.
“And it happened after a while that the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.”
“It happened after a while that the brook dried up because there was no rain in the land.”
“And it came to pass, after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.”
“and it happened after a while that the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.”
“and it came to pass after a while that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land,”
“And it came to pass after a while that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.”
8Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah:
“Then the word of the Lord came to him”
“And the word of the Lord came unto him saying,”
“and the word of the Lord came unto him saying,”
“And the Word of the Lord came unto him saying,”
“then the word of the Lord came to him”
“And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,”
9"Get up and go to Zarephath of Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you."
“Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon and dwell there. See, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”
“Arise Get thee to Zarephath which belongeth to Zidon and dwell there. Behold I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.”
“Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.”
“Rise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.”
“arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. See, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”
“arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.”
10So 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."
“So he arose and went to Zarephath 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 thee a little water in a vessel that I may drink”
“So he arose and went to Zarephath and when he came to the gate of the city Behold the widow woman was there gatherings of sticks and he called to her and said Fetch me. I pray thee a little water in a vessel that I may drink”
“So he arose and went to Zarephath, and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, a widow was there gathering sticks, and he called to her and said, Please, get me a little water in a jar that I may drink.”
“He arose and went to Zarephath, and when he had come to the gate of the city, indeed a widow was there gathering sticks. And he called to her and said, Please bring me a little water and a cup that I may drink.”
“he arose and went to Zarephath. 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 thee, a little water in a vessel that I may drink.”
“Arose, went to Zarephath, and when he came to the gate of the city, indeed a widow was there gathering sticks, and he called to her and said, please bring me a little water and a cup that I may drink.”
11And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, "Please bring me a piece of bread."
“And as she was going to fetch it He called to her and said bring me. I Pray thee a morsel of bread in thine hand”
“And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, Please bring me a morsel of bread in your hand.”
“And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.”
“And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.”
“And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.”
“And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.”
12But she replied, "As surely as the LORD your God lives, I have no bread—only a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. Look, I am gathering a couple of sticks to take home and prepare a meal for myself and my son, so that we may eat it and die."
“And she said as The Lord thy God liveth. I have not a cake but a handful of meal in a barrel and a little oil in a cruise 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…”
“But she said, As the Lord your God lives, I have no bread, only a handful of flour in the bowl and a little oil in the jar. And behold, I am gathering a few sticks, that I may go and prepare for me and my son, that we may eat it…”
“So she said, As the Lord your God lives, I don't have any bread, only a handful of flour in a bin, and a little oil in a jar, and see, I am gathering a couple sticks, that I may go and prepare it for myself and my son, that we…”
“and She said as the Lord thy God liveth I have not a cake but a handful of meal in a barrel and a little oil and a cruise and Behold I'm gathering two sticks that I may go in and dress it for me and my son that we may eat it and…”
“She says, as the Lord your God lives, I do not have bread. Only a handful of flour in a bin and a little oil in a jar, and see, I am gathering a couple of sticks that I may go in and prepare for myself and my son that we may eat…”
“And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but a handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruz. And behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son that we may eat…”
13"Do not be afraid," Elijah said to her. "Go and do as you have said. But first make me a small cake of bread from what you have, and bring it out to me. Afterward, make some for yourself and your son,
“And Elijah said unto her, Fear not, go and do as thou hast said, but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.”
“and 14. Elijah said to her, Do not fear. Go and do as you have said, but make me a small cake from it first and bring it to me. And afterward, make some for yourself and your son.”
“And Elijah said unto her, Fear not, go and do as thou hast said, but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.”
“And Elijah said unto her, Fear not, go and do as thou hast said, but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son,”
“and die. Elijah said unto her, Fear not, go and do as thou hast said, but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after, make for thee and for thy son.”
“And Elijah said unto her, fear not, go as and do as thou has said, but make me thereof a little cake first and bring it unto me and after make for thee and for thy son.”
14for this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'The jar of flour will not be exhausted and the jug of oil will not run dry until the day the LORD sends rain upon the face of the earth.'"
“For thus says the Lord God of Israel, The bin of flour shall not be used up, nor shall the jar of oil run dry until the day the Lord sends rain on the earth.”
“for thus says the Lord God of Israel the bin of flour shall not be used up nor Shall the jar of oil run dry until the day the Lord sends rain on the earth.”
“For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, the barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruise of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.”
“For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, the jar of flour shall not be spent. The jug of oil shall not be empty until the day that the Lord sends rain upon the earth.”
“For thus says the Lord God of Israel, the bowl of flour shall not be exhausted, nor shall the jar of oil be empty until the day that the Lord sends rain on the face of the earth.”
“For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, the barrel of meal shall not waste. Neither shall the cruise of oil fail until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.”
15So she went and did according to the word of Elijah, and there was food every day for Elijah and the woman and her household.
“And she went and did according to the saying of elijah and she and he and her house did eat many days.”
“And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah, and she and he and her house did eat many days”
“And she went and did as Elijah said. And she and he and her household ate for many days.”
“And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah, and she and he and her house did eat many days.”
“And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah. And she and he and her house did eat many days.”
“So she went away and did according to the word of Elijah, and she and he and her household ate for many days.”
16The jar of flour was not exhausted and the jug of oil did not run dry, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through Elijah.
“The bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by Elijah.”
“and The barrel of meal wasted not neither did the cruise of oil fail according to the word of the Lord which he spake by Elijah.”
“The jar of flour was not spent, neither did the jug of oil become empty according to the word of the Lord that he spoke by Elijah.”
“and the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruise of oil fail according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah.”
“and the barrel of meal wasted not neither did the cruise of oil fail according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by Elijah.”
“the bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by Elijah.”
17Later, the son of the woman who owned the house became ill, and his sickness grew worse and worse, until no breath remained in him.
“Now, it happened after these things that the son of the woman who owned the house became sick. And his sickness was so serious that there was no breath left in him.”
“And 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.”
“And 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.”

“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 there was no breath left in him.”
18"O man of God," said the woman to Elijah, "what have you done to me? Have you come to remind me of my iniquity and cause the death of my son?"
“And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? Art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance and to slay my son?”
“And she said unto Elijah what have I to do with thee O man of God? Art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance and to slay my son?”
“So she said to Elijah, what have I to do with you, oh man of God? Have you come to me to bring my sin to remembrance and to kill my son?”
“and she said to Elijah what have I to do with thee O thou man of God? Art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance and to slay my son?”
“so she said Elisha. What have I to do with you? Oh man of God, have you come to me to bring my sin to remembrance and to kill my son?”
19But Elijah said to her, "Give me your son." So he took him from her arms, carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his own bed.
“And he said unto her, Give me thy 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.”
“And he said to her, give me your son. So she took him out of her arms and carried him to the upper room where he was staying and laid him on his own bed.”
“And he said unto her, Give me thy 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.”
“And he said unto her give me thy son. He took him out of her bosom and carried him up into a loft where the abode. And laid him upon his own bed.”
“And he said to her give me your son. And he took him out of her bosom and carried him up into a loft where he abode and laid him on his own bed.”
“He said in verse 19, give me your son. So he took him out of her arms and carried him to the upper room where he was staying and laid him on his own bed.”
20Then he cried out to the LORD, "O LORD my God, have You also brought tragedy on this widow who has opened her home to me, by causing her son to die?"
“And he cried unto the Lord and said O Lord my God. Has thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourned by slaying her son?”
“and he cried unto the Lord and said O Lord my God hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourned by slaying her son?”
“He cried unto the Lord and said, O Lord, my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourned by slaying her son?”
“Then he cried out to the Lord and said, oh, Lord, my God, have you also brought tragedy on the widow with whom I lodge by killing her son?”
“And he cried unto the Lord and said, O Lord my God, hast thou also or even brought evil upon this widow with whom I sojourned by slaying her son?”
21Then he stretched himself out over the child three times and cried out to the LORD, "O LORD my God, please let this boy's life return to him!"
“And he stretched himself upon the child three times and cried unto the Lord and said O Lord my God I pray thee let this child soul come into him again.”
“And he stretched himself upon the child three times and cried unto the Lord and said, O Lord my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.”
“And he stretched himself upon the child three times and cried unto the Lord and said, O Lord my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.”
“He stretched himself upon the child three times and cried unto the Lord and said, O Lord, my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.”
“And he stretched himself out on the child three times and cried out to the Lord and said, Oh, Lord, my God, I pray. Let this child's soul come back to him.”
“And he stretched himself upon the child three times and cried unto the Lord and said O Lord my God I pray thee let the child's soul come unto him again.”
22And the LORD listened to the voice of Elijah, and the child's life returned to him, and he lived.
“And the Lord heard the voice of Elijah and the soul of the child came into him again and he revived”
“And the Lord heard the voice of Elijah and the soul of the child came into him again and he revived,”
“And the Lord heard the voice of Elijah and the soul of the child came into him again and he revived.”
“And the Lord heard the voice of Elijah and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.”
“The Lord heard the voice of Elijah and the soul of the child came back to him and he revived.”
“the Lord heard the voice of Elijah and the soul of the child came unto him again and he revived.”
23Then Elijah took the child, brought him down from the upper room into the house, and gave him to his mother. "Look, your son is alive," Elijah declared.
“And Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper room into the house and gave him to his mother. And Elijah said, See, your son lives.”
“And Elijah took the child and brought him down out of the chamber into the house and delivered him unto his mother. And Elijah said, See thy son liveth.”
“And Elijah took the child and brought him down out of the chamber into the house and delivered him unto his mother and Elijah said let see thy son liveth.”

“Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper room into the house and he gave him to his mother. And Elijah said, see your son lives.”
24Then the woman said to Elijah, "Now I know that you are a man of God and that the word of the LORD from your mouth is truth."
“And the woman said to Elijah now by this I know that thou art a man of God and that the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth.”
“Then the woman said to Elijah, Now, by this, I know that you are a man of God and that the word of the Lord in your mouth is the truth.”
“And the woman said to Elijah now by this I know that thou art a man of God and that the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth.”
