before

stand

@
Get
thee hence, and
turn
thee
eastward

thyself by the
brook
Cherith

@ And it shall be, that thou shalt
drink
of the
brook

get
thee to
Zarephath

Zidon

dwell
there: behold, I have
commanded

sustain
thee.

gathering

gathering
two

not;

bring
it unto me, and

for thee and for thy
