12 Porém ela respondeu: Tão certo como vive o Senhor, teu Deus, nada tenho cozido; há somente um punhado de farinha numa panela e um pouco de azeite numa botija; e, vês aqui, apanhei dois cavacos e vou preparar esse resto de comida para mim e para o meu filho; comê-lo-emos e morreremos.

12 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.

12 "As surely as the LORD your God lives," she replied, "I don't have any bread —only a handful of flour in a jar and a little olive oil in a jug. I am gathering a few sticks to take home and make a meal for myself and my son, that we may eat it —and die."
