1
Now there cried
a certain
woman
of the wives
of the
sons
of the prophets
unto Elisha
, saying,
Thy servant
my husband
is dead
;
and thou knowest
that thy servant
did fear
the LORD
:
and the creditor
is come
to take
unto him my two
sons
to be bondmen
.
2
And Elisha
said
unto her, What shall I do
for
thee? tell
me,
what
has
t thou in
the house
? And she
said
,
Thine handmaid
hath not any thing in
the house
,
save a pot
of oil
.
3
Then he said
,
Go
,
borrow
thee
vessels
abroad
of
all
thy neighbours,
even
empty
vessels
;
borrow
not a few
.
4
And when thou art come in
,
thou shalt shut
the door
upon thee and upon thy sons
,
and shalt pour out
into
all
those vessels
,
and thou shalt set aside
that which is full
.
5
So she
went
from him, and shut
the door
upon her and upon
her sons
, who
brought
the vessels
to her; and she poured out.
6
And it came to pass, when the vessels
were full
,
that she said
unto her son
,
Bring
me yet a vessel
.
And he said
unto her,
There
is
not a vessel
more
. And the oil
stayed
.
7
Then she came
and told
the man
of
Go
d
.
And he said
,
Go
,
sell
the oil
,
and pay
thy debt,
and live
thou and thy children
of the rest
.
8
And it fell on a day
,
that Elisha
passed
to Shunem
,
where
was
a great
woman
;
and she constrained
him to eat
bread
. And
so
it was,
that
as oft
as he
passed
by
,
he turned
in thither to eat
bread
.
9
And she said
unto her husband
,
Behold
now
, I perceive
that
this
is
an holy
man
of God
,
which passeth
by us continually
.
10
Let us make
a little
chamber
, I pray thee, on the wall;
and let us set
for him
there
a bed
,
and a table
,
and a stool
,
and a candlestick
: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.
11
And it fell on a day
,
that he came
thither, and he turned
into the chamber
,
and lay
there
.
12
And he said
to Gehazi
his servant
,
Call
this Shunammite
.
And when he had called
her, she stood
before
him.
13
And he said
unto him,
Say
now
unto her,
Behold
, thou hast been careful
f
or
us with
all
this care
;
what
is
to be done
f
or
thee? wouldest
thou be spoken
f
or
to the king
,
or
to the captain
of the host? And she answered,
I dwell
among
mine own people
.
14
And he said
,
What
then
is
to be done
for her? And Gehazi
answered
,
Verily
she hath no child
,
and her husband
is old
.
15
And he said
,
Call
her. And when he had called her, she stood
in the door
.
16
And he said
,
About
this
season
,
according to the time
of life
,
thou shalt embrace
a son
.
And she said
, Nay, my lord,
thou
man
of God
,
do not lie
unto thine handmaid
.
17
And the woman
conceived
,
and bare
a son
at that season
that Elisha
had said
unto her, according to the time
of life
.
18
And when the child
was grown
,
it fell on a day
,
that he went out
to his father
to the reapers
.
19
And he said
unto his father
,
My head
,
my head
.
And he said
to a lad
,
Carry
him to his mother
.
20
And when he had taken
him, and brought
him to his mother
,
he sat
on her knees
till noon
,
and
then
died
.
21
And she went up
,
and laid
him on the bed
of the man
of God
,
and shut
the door
upon him, and went out.
22
And she called
unto her husband
,
and said
,
Send
me, I pray thee, one
of the young men
,
and one
of the asses
,
that I may run
to the man
of God
,
and come again
.
23
And he said
, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day?
it is
neither
new
moon,
nor
sabbath
.
And she said
,
It shall be
well
.
24
Then she saddled
an ass
,
and said
to her servant
,
Drive
,
and go
for
ward;
slack
not
thy
riding
for
me, except I bid thee.
25
So she
went
and came
unto the man
of God
to mount
Carmel
. And it came to pass, when the man
of God
saw her afar off
,
that he said
to Gehazi
his servant
,
Behold
,
yonder is
that
Shunammite
:
26
Run
now
, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her,
Is it
well
with thee?
is
it
well
with thy husband?
is
it
well
with the child? And she answered,
It
is
well
.
27
And when she came
to the man
of
God
to the hill
,
she caught
him by the feet
:
but Gehazi
came near
to thrust her away
.
And the man
of
God
said
,
Let her alone
;
for her soul
is
vexed
within her: and the LORD
hath hid
it
from me, and hath not told me.
28
Then she
said
,
Did I desire
a son
of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?
29
Then he said
to Gehazi
,
Gird up
thy loins
,
and take
my staff
in thine hand
,
and go
thy way:
if
thou meet
any man
,
salute
him not;
and
if
any
salute
thee, answer him not again:
and lay
my staff
upon the face
of the child
.
30
And the mother
of the child
said
,
As
the LORD
liveth
,
and
as
thy soul
liveth
,
I will not leave
thee. And he arose, and followed her.
31
And Gehazi
passed on
before
them, and laid
the staff
upon the face
of the child
;
but
there
was
neither voice
,
nor hearing
.
Wherefore he went again
to meet him, and told him, saying,
The child
is not awaked.
32
And when Elisha
was come
into the house
,
behold
, the child
was dead
,
and
laid
upon his bed
.
33
He went in
therefore, and shut
the door
upon them twain
,
and prayed
unto the LORD
.
34
And he went up
,
and lay
upon the child
,
and put
his mouth
upon
his mouth
,
and his eyes
upon his eyes
,
and his hands
upon his hands:
and he stretched
himself
upon the child
; and the flesh
of the child
waxed warm
.
35
Then he returned
,
and walked
in the house
to and fro;
and went up
,
and stretched
himself upon him:
and the child
sneezed
seven
times
,
and the child
opened
his eyes
.
36
And he called
Gehazi
,
and said
,
Call
this Shunammite
.
So he called
her. And when she was come in unto him, he said,
Take up
thy son
.
37
Then she went in
,
and fell
at his feet
,
and bowed
herself to the ground
,
and took up
her son
,
and went out
.
38
And Elisha
came again
to Gilgal
:
and
there was
a dearth
in the land
;
and the sons
of the prophets
were
sitting
before
him: and he said
unto his servant
,
Set
on the great
pot
,
and seethe
pot
tage
for the sons
of the prophets
.
39
And one
went out
into the field
to gather
herbs
,
and found
a wild
vine
,
and gathered
thereof wild
gourds
his lap
full
,
and came
and shred
them
into the pot
of pottage
:
for they knew
them
not.
40
So they poured out
for the men
to eat
. And it came to pass, as they were eating
of the pottage
,
that they cried out
,
and said
,
O
thou
man
of God
,
there is
death
in the pot
. And they could
not eat
thereof
.
41
But he said
,
Then bring
meal
.
And he cast
it
into the pot
;
and he said
,
Pour out
for the people
,
that they may eat
. And there was
no
harm
in the pot
.
42
And there came
a man
from Baalshalisha
,
and brought
the man
of God
bread
of the firstfruits
,
twenty
loaves
of barley
,
and full ears of corn
in the husk
thereof. And he said,
Give
unto the people
,
that they may eat
.
43
And his servitor
said
,
What
, should I set
this
before
an hundred
men? He
said
again,
Give
t
he
people
,
that t
he
y may eat
:
for
thus
saith
t
he
LORD
,
T
he
y shall eat
,
and shall leave
t
he
reof
.
44
So he set
it
before
them, and they did eat,
and left
thereof
, according to the word
of the LORD
.
