And she said, [As] the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I [am] gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
And she said {H559}, As the LORD {H3068} thy God {H430} liveth {H2416}, I have {H3426} not a cake {H4580}, but an handful {H4393}{H3709} of meal {H7058} in a barrel {H3537}, and a little {H4592} oil {H8081} in a cruse {H6835}: and, behold, I am gathering {H7197} two {H8147} sticks {H6086}, that I may go in {H935} and dress {H6213} it for me and my son {H1121}, that we may eat {H398} it, and die {H4191}.
She answered, "As ADONAI your God lives, I have nothing baked, only a handful of meal in a pot and a little oil in the jug. Here I am, gathering a couple sticks of wood, so that I can go and cook it for myself and my son. After we have eaten that, we will die."
But she replied, “As surely as the LORD your God lives, I have no bread—only a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. Look, I am gathering a couple of sticks to take home and prepare a meal for myself and my son, so that we may eat it and die.”
And she said, As Jehovah thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but a handful of meal in the jar, and a little oil in the cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
