2 Kings 4

Now there cried
<06817> (8804)

a certain
<0259>

woman
<0802>

of the wives
<0802>

of the sons
<01121>

of the prophets
<05030>

unto Elisha
<0477>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thy servant
<05650>

my husband
<0376>

is dead
<04191> (8804)_;

and thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

that thy servant
<05650>

did fear
<03373>

the LORD
<03068>_:

and the creditor
<05383> (8802)

is come
<0935> (8804)

to take
<03947> (8800)

unto him my two
<08147>

sons
<03206>

to be bondmen
<05650>_.

And Elisha
<0477>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, What shall I do
<06213> (8799)

for thee? tell
<05046> (8685)

me, what hast
<03426>

thou in the house
<01004>_?

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thine handmaid
<08198>

hath not any thing in the house
<01004>_,

save a pot
<0610>

of oil
<08081>_.

Then he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

borrow
<07592> (8798)

thee vessels
<03627>

abroad
<02351>

of all thy neighbours
<07934>_,

[even] empty
<07386>

vessels
<03627>_;

borrow not a few
<04591> (8686)_.

{borrow not...: or, scant not}

And when thou art come in
<0935> (8804)_,

thou shalt shut
<05462> (8804)

the door
<01817>

upon thee and upon thy sons
<01121>_,

and shalt pour out
<03332> (8804)

into all those vessels
<03627>_,

and thou shalt set aside
<05265> (8686)

that which is full
<04392>_.

So she went
<03212> (8799)

from him, and shut
<05462> (8799)

the door
<01817>

upon her and upon
<01157>

her sons
<01121>_,

who
<01992>

brought
<05066> (8688)

[the vessels] to her; and she poured out
<03332> (8716)_.

And it came to pass, when the vessels
<03627>

were full
<04390> (8800)_,

that she said
<0559> (8799)

unto her son
<01121>_,

Bring
<05066> (8685)

me yet a vessel
<03627>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, [There is] not a vessel
<03627>

more. And the oil
<08081>

stayed
<05975> (8799)_.

Then she came
<0935> (8799)

and told
<05046> (8686)

the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

sell
<04376> (8798)

the oil
<08081>_,

and pay
<07999> (8761)

thy debt
<05386>_,

and live
<02421> (8799)

thou and thy children
<01121>

of the rest
<03498> (8737)_.

{debt: or, creditor}

And it fell on a day
<03117>_,

that Elisha
<0477>

passed
<05674> (8799)

to Shunem
<07766>_,

where [was] a great
<01419>

woman
<0802>_;

and she constrained
<02388> (8686)

him to eat
<0398> (8800)

bread
<03899>_.

And [so] it was, [that] as oft
<01767>

as he passed by
<05674> (8800)_,

he turned
<05493> (8799)

in thither to eat
<0398> (8800)

bread
<03899>_.

{it fell on a day: Heb. there was a day} {constrained him: Heb. laid hold on him}

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto her husband
<0376>_,

Behold now, I perceive
<03045> (8804)

that this [is] an holy
<06918>

man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

which passeth
<05674> (8802)

by us continually
<08548>_.

Let us make
<06213> (8799)

a little
<06996>

chamber
<05944>_,

I pray thee, on the wall
<07023>_;

and let us set
<07760> (8799)

for him there a bed
<04296>_,

and a table
<07979>_,

and a stool
<03678>_,

and a candlestick
<04501>_:

and it shall be, when he cometh
<0935> (8800)

to us, that he shall turn
<05493> (8799)

in thither.

And it fell on a day
<03117>_,

that he came
<0935> (8799)

thither, and he turned
<05493> (8799)

into the chamber
<05944>_,

and lay
<07901> (8799)

there.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

to Gehazi
<01522>

his servant
<05288>_,

Call
<07121> (8798)

this Shunammite
<07767>_.

And when he had called
<07121> (8799)

her, she stood
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

him.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Say
<0559> (8798)

now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful
<02729> (8804)

for us with all this care
<02731>_;

what [is] to be done
<06213> (8800)

for thee? wouldest
<03426>

thou be spoken
<01696> (8763)

for to the king
<04428>_,

or to the captain
<08269>

of the host
<06635>_?

And she answered
<0559> (8799)_,

I dwell
<03427> (8802)

among
<08432>

mine own people
<05971>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

What then [is] to be done
<06213> (8800)

for her? And Gehazi
<01522>

answered
<0559> (8799)_,

Verily
<061>

she hath no child
<01121>_,

and her husband
<0376>

is old
<02204> (8804)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Call
<07121> (8798)

her. And when he had called
<07121> (8799)

her, she stood
<05975> (8799)

in the door
<06607>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

About this season
<04150>_,

according to the time
<06256>

of life
<02416>_,

thou shalt embrace
<02263> (8802)

a son
<01121>_.

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Nay, my lord
<0113>_,

[thou] man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

do not lie
<03576> (8762)

unto thine handmaid
<08198>_.

{season: Heb. set time}

And the woman
<0802>

conceived
<02029> (8799)_,

and bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>

at that season
<04150>

that Elisha
<0477>

had said
<01696> (8765)

unto her, according to the time
<06256>

of life
<02416>_.

And when the child
<03206>

was grown
<01431> (8799)_,

it fell on a day
<03117>_,

that he went out
<03318> (8799)

to his father
<01>

to the reapers
<07114> (8802)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto his father
<01>_,

My head
<07218>_,

my head
<07218>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

to a lad
<05288>_,

Carry
<05375> (8798)

him to his mother
<0517>_.

And when he had taken
<05375> (8799)

him, and brought
<0935> (8686)

him to his mother
<0517>_,

he sat
<03427> (8799)

on her knees
<01290>

till noon
<06672>_,

and [then] died
<04191> (8799)_.

And she went up
<05927> (8799)_,

and laid
<07901> (8686)

him on the bed
<04296>

of the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

and shut
<05462> (8799)

[the door] upon him, and went out
<03318> (8799)_.

And she called
<07121> (8799)

unto her husband
<0376>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Send
<07971> (8798)

me, I pray thee, one
<0259>

of the young men
<05288>_,

and one
<0259>

of the asses
<0860>_,

that I may run
<07323> (8799)

to the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

and come again
<07725> (8799)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Wherefore wilt thou go
<01980> (8802)

to him to day
<03117>_?

[it is] neither new moon
<02320>_,

nor sabbath
<07676>_.

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

[It shall be] well
<07965>_.

{well: Heb. peace}

Then she saddled
<02280> (8799)

an ass
<0860>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

to her servant
<05288>_,

Drive
<05090> (8798)_,

and go forward
<03212> (8798)_;

slack
<06113> (8799)

not [thy] riding
<07392> (8800)

for me, except I bid
<0559> (8804)

thee. {slack...: Heb. restrain not for me to ride}

So she went
<03212> (8799)

and came
<0935> (8799)

unto the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

to mount
<02022>

Carmel
<03760>_.

And it came to pass, when the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

saw her afar off
<07200> (8800)_,

that he said
<0559> (8799)

to Gehazi
<01522>

his servant
<05288>_,

Behold, [yonder is] that
<01975>

Shunammite
<07767>_:

Run
<07323> (8798)

now, I pray thee, to meet
<07125> (8800)

her, and say
<0559> (8798)

unto her, [Is it] well
<07965>

with thee? [is it] well
<07965>

with thy husband
<0376>_?

[is it] well
<07965>

with the child
<03206>_?

And she answered
<0559> (8799)_,

[It is] well
<07965>_.

And when she came
<0935> (8799)

to the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

to the hill
<02022>_,

she caught
<02388> (8686)

him by the feet
<07272>_:

but Gehazi
<01522>

came near
<05066> (8799)

to thrust her away
<01920> (8800)_.

And the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let her alone
<07503> (8685)_;

for her soul
<05315>

[is] vexed
<04843> (8804)

within her: and the LORD
<03068>

hath hid
<05956> (8689)

[it] from me, and hath not told
<05046> (8689)

me. {him...: Heb. by his feet} {vexed: Heb. bitter}

Then she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Did I desire
<07592> (8804)

a son
<01121>

of my lord
<0113>_?

did I not say
<0559> (8804)_,

Do not deceive
<07952> (8686)

me?

Then he said
<0559> (8799)

to Gehazi
<01522>_,

Gird up
<02296> (8798)

thy loins
<04975>_,

and take
<03947> (8798)

my staff
<04938>

in thine hand
<03027>_,

and go thy way
<03212> (8798)_:

if thou meet
<04672> (8799)

any man
<0376>_,

salute
<01288> (8762)

him not; and if any
<0376>

salute
<01288> (8762)

thee, answer him not again
<06030> (8799)_:

and lay
<07760> (8804)

my staff
<04938>

upon the face
<06440>

of the child
<05288>_.

And the mother
<0517>

of the child
<05288>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

[As] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

and [as] thy soul
<05315>

liveth
<02416>_,

I will not leave
<05800> (8799)

thee. And he arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and followed
<03212> (8799) <0310>

her.

And Gehazi
<01522>

passed on
<05674> (8804)

before
<06440>

them, and laid
<07760> (8799)

the staff
<04938>

upon the face
<06440>

of the child
<05288>_;

but [there was] neither voice
<06963>_,

nor hearing
<07182>_.

Wherefore he went again
<07725> (8799)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

him, and told
<05046> (8686)

him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The child
<05288>

is not awaked
<06974> (8689)_.

{hearing: Heb. attention}

And when Elisha
<0477>

was come
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>_,

behold, the child
<05288>

was dead
<04191> (8801)_,

[and] laid
<07901> (8716)

upon his bed
<04296>_.

He went in
<0935> (8799)

therefore, and shut
<05462> (8799)

the door
<01817>

upon them twain
<08147>_,

and prayed
<06419> (8691)

unto the LORD
<03068>_.

And he went up
<05927> (8799)_,

and lay
<07901> (8799)

upon the child
<03206>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

his mouth
<06310>

upon his mouth
<06310>_,

and his eyes
<05869>

upon his eyes
<05869>_,

and his hands
<03709>

upon his hands
<03709>_:

and he stretched
<01457> (8799)

himself upon the child; and the flesh
<01320>

of the child
<03206>

waxed warm
<02552> (8799)_.

Then he returned
<07725> (8799)_,

and walked
<03212> (8799)

in the house
<01004>

to
<0259> <02008>

and fro
<0259> <02008>_;

and went up
<05927> (8799)_,

and stretched
<01457> (8799)

himself upon him: and the child
<05288>

sneezed
<02237> (8779)

seven
<07651>

times
<06471>_,

and the child
<05288>

opened
<06491> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_.

{to and fro: Heb. once hither and once thither}

And he called
<07121> (8799)

Gehazi
<01522>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Call
<07121> (8798)

this Shunammite
<07767>_.

So he called
<07121> (8799)

her. And when she was come in
<0935> (8799)

unto him, he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Take up
<05375> (8798)

thy son
<01121>_.

Then she went in
<0935> (8799)_,

and fell
<05307> (8799)

at his feet
<07272>_,

and bowed
<07812> (8691)

herself to the ground
<0776>_,

and took up
<05375> (8799)

her son
<01121>_,

and went out
<03318> (8799)_.

And Elisha
<0477>

came again
<07725> (8804)

to Gilgal
<01537>_:

and [there was] a dearth
<07458>

in the land
<0776>_;

and the sons
<01121>

of the prophets
<05030>

[were] sitting
<03427> (8802)

before
<06440>

him: and he said
<0559> (8799)

unto his servant
<05288>_,

Set
<08239> (8798)

on the great
<01419>

pot
<05518>_,

and seethe
<01310> (8761)

pottage
<05138>

for the sons
<01121>

of the prophets
<05030>_.

And one
<0259>

went out
<03318> (8799)

into the field
<07704>

to gather
<03950> (8763)

herbs
<0219>_,

and found
<04672> (8799)

a wild
<07704>

vine
<01612>_,

and gathered
<03950> (8762)

thereof wild
<07704>

gourds
<06498>

his lap
<0899>

full
<04393>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

and shred
<06398> (8762)

[them] into the pot
<05518>

of pottage
<05138>_:

for they knew
<03045> (8804)

[them] not.

So they poured out
<03332> (8799)

for the men
<0582>

to eat
<0398> (8800)_.

And it came to pass, as they were eating
<0398> (8800)

of the pottage
<05138>_,

that they cried out
<06817> (8804)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

O [thou] man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

[there is] death
<04194>

in the pot
<05518>_.

And they could
<03201> (8804)

not eat
<0398> (8800)

[thereof].

But he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Then bring
<03947> (8798)

meal
<07058>_.

And he cast
<07993> (8686)

[it] into the pot
<05518>_;

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Pour out
<03332> (8798)

for the people
<05971>_,

that they may eat
<0398> (8799)_.

And there was no harm
<01697> <07451>

in the pot
<05518>_.

{harm: Heb. evil thing}

And there came
<0935> (8802)

a man
<0376>

from Baalshalisha
<01190>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>

bread
<03899>

of the firstfruits
<01061>_,

twenty
<06242>

loaves
<03899>

of barley
<08184>_,

and full ears of corn
<03759>

in the husk
<06861>

thereof. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Give
<05414> (8798)

unto the people
<05971>_,

that they may eat
<0398> (8799)_.

{the husk...: or, his scrip, or, garment}

And his servitor
<08334> (8764)

said
<0559> (8799)_,

What, should I set
<05414> (8799)

this before
<06440>

an hundred
<03967>

men
<0376>_?

He said again
<0559> (8799)_,

Give
<05414> (8798)
