Get one widow ova dea, an she goin give you food.’ Wen he had get to da gates of da town, Elijah see one pooa widow picking up sticks fo make fiyah. He wen ask her fo one cup wattah. She wuz on her way fo get um, but den Elijah ask: ‘Can bring litto bit bread too?’ But da widow tell: ‘I no moa even one piece bread fo give you. I ony get nuff flour an oil fo make litto bit food fo me an my boy—dass it!’ Elijah tell her: ‘Jehovah promise dat if you make some bread fo me, you no goin run outa flour an oil til da rain come back again.’

So da widow wen go home fo make da bread fo Jehovah’s prophet. Da whole time neva have rain, da widow an her boy neva run out of food jalike Jehovah had promise. Her jar flour an jar oil wen stay full all da time.
