2 Kings 4:25–37

²⁵And she went and came to 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, there is the Shunammite: ²⁶run 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 said, It is well. ²⁷And she came to the man of God to the mountain, and caught him by the feet; and Gehazi drew near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, Let her alone, for her soul is troubled within her, and Jehovah has hidden it from me, and has not told me. ²⁸And she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me? ²⁹And he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy 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 lad. ³⁰And the mother of the lad said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! And he rose up and followed her. ³¹And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the lad; but there was neither voice, nor sign of attention. And he returned to meet him, and told him saying, The lad is not awaked. ³²And when Elisha came into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed. ³³And he went in and shut the door upon them both, and prayed to Jehovah. ³⁴And 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 bent over him; and the flesh of the child grew warm. ³⁵And he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and bent over him. And the lad sneezed seven times, and the lad opened his eyes. ³⁶And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. And he called her; and she came to him. And he said, Take up thy son. ³⁷And she came and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; and she took up her son, and went out.
