2 Kings 4:32-35
Context4:32 When Elisha arrived at the house, there was 1 the child lying dead on his bed. 4:33 He went in by himself and closed the door. 2 Then he prayed to the Lord. 4:34 He got up on the bed and spread his body out over 3 the boy; he put his mouth on the boy’s 4 mouth, his eyes over the boy’s eyes, and the palms of his hands against the boy’s palms. He bent down over him, and the boy’s skin 5 grew warm. 4:35 Elisha 6 went back and walked around in the house. 7 Then he got up on the bed again 8 and bent down over him. The child sneezed seven times and opened his eyes.
