1 Kings 17:16 in Context — 1 Kings 17
14 Car ainsi parle l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël: La farine qui est dans le pot ne manquera point et l’huile qui est dans la cruche ne diminuera point, jusqu’au jour où l’Éternel fera tomber de la pluie sur la face du sol.
15 Elle alla, et elle fit selon la parole d’Élie. Et pendant longtemps elle eut de quoi manger, elle et sa famille, aussi bien qu’Élie.
16 La farine qui était dans le pot ne manqua point, et l’huile qui était dans la cruche ne diminua point, selon la parole que l’Éternel avait prononcée par Élie.
17 Après ces choses, le fils de la femme, maîtresse de la maison, devint malade, et sa maladie fut si violente qu’il ne resta plus en lui de respiration.
18 Cette femme dit alors à Élie: Qu’y a-t-il entre moi et toi, homme de Dieu? Es-tu venu chez moi pour rappeler le souvenir de mon iniquité, et pour faire mourir mon fils?
