ગુજરાતી1 રાજાઓ ૧૭:૧૦
તેથી તે સારફત ચાલ્યો ગયો, જયારે તે નગરના પ્રવેશદ્વારે પહોંચ્યો ત્યારે તેણે એક વિધવા સ્ત્રીને લાકડાં વીણતી જોઈ, તેણે તેને બોલાવીને કહ્યું, “કૃપા કરીને મારે પીવા સારુ તું મને કૂજામાં થોડું પાણી લાવી આપ.”
हिन्दी1 राजाओं १७:१०
अतः वह वहाँ से चल दिया, और सारफत को गया; नगर के फाटक के पास पहुँचकर उसने क्या देखा कि, एक विधवा लकड़ी बीन रही है, उसको बुलाकर उसने कहा, “किसी पात्र में मेरे पीने को थोड़ा पानी ले आ।”

In context

8The LORD’s word 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.”

10So he arose and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, a widow was there gathering sticks. He called to her and said, “Please get me a little water in a jar, that I may drink.”

11As she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a morsel of bread in your hand.”

12She said, “As the LORD your God lives, I don’t have anything baked, but only a handful of meal in a jar and a little oil in a 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.”
