1Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had restored to life, “Arise, and depart with your household, and sojourn wherever you can; for the Lord has called for a famine, and it will come upon the land for seven years.” 2So the woman arose, and did according to the word of the man of God; she went with her household and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.
