The context

12She said, “As YHWH your Elohim lives, I have no cake, only a handful of flour in the jar and a little oil in the jug; and look, I am gathering a couple of sticks, and I will go in and prepare it for myself and for my son, and we will eat it and die.”

13 · This verse (above)

14For thus says YHWH, the Elohim of Israel: ‘The jar of flour will not be used up, and the jug of oil will not run short, until the day that YHWH gives rain on the face of the ground.’”
