- 1 Rois 17
  
  1 Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the foreigners of Gilead, said to Ahab, "As Yahweh, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word."
  
  2 The word of Yahweh came to him, saying,
  
  3 "Go away from here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the brook Cherith, that is before the Jordan.
  
  4 It shall be, that you shall drink of the brook. I have commanded the ravens to feed you there."
  
  5 So he went and did according to the word of Yahweh; for he went and lived by the brook Cherith, that is before the Jordan.
  
  6 The ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.
  
  7 It happened after a while, that the brook dried up, because there was no rain in the land.
  
  8 The word of Yahweh came to him, saying,
  
  9 "Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain you."
  
  10 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 vessel, that I may drink."
  
  11 As she was going to get it, he called to her, and said, "Please bring me a morsel of bread in your hand."
  
  12 She said, "As Yahweh your God lives, I don't have a cake, but a handful of meal in the jar, and a little oil in the jar. Behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and bake it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die."
  
  13 Elijah said to her, "Don't be afraid. Go and do as you have said; but make me of it a little cake first, and bring it out to me, and afterward make some for you and for your son.
  
  14 For thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'The jar of meal shall not empty, neither shall the jar of oil fail, until the day that Yahweh sends rain on the earth.'"
  
  15 She went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, ate many days.
  
  16 The jar of meal didn't empty, neither did the jar of oil fail, according to the word of Yahweh, which he spoke by Elijah.
  
  17 It happened after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so severe, that there was no breath left in him.
  
  18 She said to Elijah, "What have I to do with you, you man of God? You have come to me to bring my sin to memory, and to kill my son!"
  
  19 He said to her, "Give me your son." He took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the room where he stayed, and laid him on his own bed.
  
  20 He cried to Yahweh, and said, "Yahweh my God, have you also brought evil on the widow with whom I stay, by killing her son?"
  
  21 He stretched himself on the child three times, and cried to Yahweh, and said, "Yahweh my God, please let this child's soul come into him again."
  
  22 Yahweh listened to the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
  
  23 Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the room into the house, and delivered him to his mother; and Elijah said, "Behold, your son lives."
  
  24 The woman said to Elijah, "Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the word of Yahweh in your mouth is truth."
  
  Ezéchiel 47
  
  1 He brought me back to the door of the house; and behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward; (for the forefront of the house was toward the east;) and the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.
  
  2 Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me round by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of [the gate] that looks toward the east; and behold, there ran out waters on the right side.
  
  3 When the man went forth eastward with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.
  
  4 Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through [the waters], waters that were to the waist.
  
  5 Afterward he measured one thousand; [and it was] a river that I could not pass through; for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.
  
  6 He said to me, Son of man, have you seen [this]? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
  
  7 Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
  
  8 Then he said to me, These waters issue forth toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah; and they shall go toward the sea; into the sea [shall the waters go] which were made to issue forth; and the waters shall be healed.
  
  9 It shall happen, that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, shall live; and there shall be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters have come there, and [the waters of the sea] shall be healed, and everything shall live wherever the river comes.
  
  10 It shall happen, that fishermen shall stand by it: from En Gedi even to En Eglaim shall be a place for the spreading of nets; their fish shall be after their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many.
  
  11 But the miry places of it, and its marshes, shall not be healed; they shall be given up to salt.
  
  12 By the river on its bank, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, neither shall its fruit fail: it shall bring forth new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary; and its fruit shall be for food, and its leaf for healing.
  
  13 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: This shall be the border, by which you shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph [shall have two] portions.
  
  14 You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you for inheritance.
  
  15 This shall be the border of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad;
  
  16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazer Hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
  
  17 The border from the sea, shall be Hazar Enon at the border of Damascus; and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.
  
  18 The east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the [north] border to the east sea you shall measure. This is the east side.
  
  19 The south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth Kadesh, to the brook [of Egypt], to the great sea. This is the south side southward.
  
  20 The west side shall be the great sea, from the [south] border as far as over against the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
  
  21 So you shall divide this land to you according to the tribes of Israel.
  
  22 It shall happen, that you shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live among you, who shall father children among you; and they shall be to you as the native-born among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
  
  23 It shall happen, that in what tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance, says the Lord Yahweh.

  1 Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
  
  2 Continue steadfastly in prayer, watching therein with thanksgiving;
  
  3 praying together for us also, that God may open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds;
  
  4 that I may reveal it as I ought to speak.
  
  5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.
  
  6 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

  9 together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you everything that is going on here.
  
  10 Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, greets you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (concerning whom you received commandments, "if he comes to you, receive him"),
  
  11 and Jesus who is called Justus. These are my only fellow workers for the Kingdom of God who are of the circumcision, men who have been a comfort to me.
  
  12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, salutes you, always striving for you in his prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
