8And †it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to eShunem, where was fa 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. 9And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy dman of God, which passeth by us continually. 10Let us make a little gchamber, 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. 11And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the gchamber, and lay there. 12And he said to hGehazi his servant, Call this eShunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him. 13And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been icareful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to kthe captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people. 14And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old. 15And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door. 16And he said, lAbout this †season, according to the time of life, thou shalt membrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, dthou man of God, ndo not lie unto thine handmaid. 17And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.
