Geneva(i) 1 And Eliiah the Tishbite one of the inhabitats of Gilead sayde vnto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liueth, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dewe nor rayne these yeeres, but according to my worde. 2 And the worde of the Lord came vnto him, saying, 3 Go hence, and turne thee Eastwarde, and hide thy selfe in the riuer Cherith, that is ouer against Iorden, 4 And thou shalt drinke of the riuer: and I haue comanded the rauens to feede thee there. 5 So he went and did according vnto the word of the Lord: for he went, and remained by the riuer Cherith that is ouer against Iorden. 6 And the rauens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the euening, and he dranke of the riuer. 7 And after a while the riuer dryed vp, because there fell no rayne vpon the earth.
