Midrasz do Królów I 17:20

וַיִּקְרָ֥א אֶל־יְהוָ֖ה וַיֹּאמַ֑ר יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהָ֔י הֲ֠גַם עַל־הָאַלְמָנָ֞ה אֲשֶׁר־אֲנִ֨י מִתְגּוֹרֵ֥ר עִמָּ֛הּ הֲרֵע֖וֹתָ לְהָמִ֥ית אֶת־בְּנָֽהּ׃

Poczem wezwał Wiekuistego, i rzekł: Wiekuisty, Boże mój, czyżbyś nawet i tej wdowie, u której przebywam, tak źle uczynił, abyś zabił syna jej? 

Midrash Tanchuma

At the time the Holy One, blessed be He, said to Moses: Come now, therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh (Exod. 3:10), Moses replied: “Master of the Universe, I cannot leave, for Jethro welcomed me and opened his home unto me, and I am like a son unto him.” If one opens his door to his fellowmen, the latter owes him his very life. You find this occurred at the time Elijah visited the widow in Zarephath. After her son’s death, he began to plead: O Lord my God, hast Thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourned, by slaying her son? (I Kings 17:20). Whereupon, The Lord harkened unto the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came back into him, and he revived (ibid., v. 22).
