8And it happened one day that Elisha passed by to Shunem, and there was a prominent woman, and she urged him to eat food; and whenever he passed by, he would turn aside there to eat food.9And she said to her husband, "Behold, please, I know that this is a holy man of God who passes by us continually."10Let us make, please, a small upper room on the wall, and let us set for him there a bed and a table and a chair and a lampstand; and it shall be, whenever he comes to us, that he turns aside there.11And it was the day, and he came there, and he turned aside toward the upper room, and he lay down there.12And he said to Gehazi his servant, "Call this Shunammite"; and he called her, and she stood before him.13And he said to him, "Say, please, to her, 'Behold, you trembled toward us all this trembling; what is there to do for you? Is there to speak for you to the king or to the ruler of the army?'" And she said, "In the midst of my kinsman I am dwelling."14And he said, "And what is there to do for her?" And Gehazi said, "Truly, she has no son, and her husband is old."15And he said, "Call to her"; and he called to her, and she stood in the entrance.16And he said, "At this season, about this time next year, you shall embrace a son." And she said, "No, my lord, O man of God, do not lie to your maidservant."17And the woman conceived, and she bore a son at that time the following year, as Elisha had spoken to her.18And the youth grew, and it was the day, and he came out toward his father, toward the reaping.19And he said to his father, "My head, my head." And he said to the youth, "Lift him toward his mother."20And he lifted him, and he brought him toward his mother, and he sat upon her knees till the midday, and he died.21And she ascended, and she laid him upon the bed of the man of God, and she shut about him, and she came out.22And she called to her husband, and she said, "Send me, please, one of the young men and one of the donkeys, and I will run to the man of God and return."23And he said, "Why are you going toward him today? It is not month and not Sabbath." And she said, "Peace."24And she saddled the donkey, and she said to her servant, "Lead and go; do not restrain me from riding unless I tell you."25And she walked, and she came to the man of God, to Mount Carmel. And it happened that when the man of God saw her from a distance, he said to Gehazi his servant, "Behold, the Shunammite."26Now run, please, to befall her, and say to her, "Is peace to you? Is peace to your man? Is peace to the youth?" And she said, "Peace."27And she came to the man of God at the mountain, and she took hold of his feet; and Gehazi approached to thrust her away, and the man of God said, "Let her alone, for her soul is troubled within her, and the LORD has hidden it from me and has not told me."28And she said, "Did I ask a son from my lord? Did I not say, 'Do not neglect me'?"29And he said to Gehazi, "Gird your loins, and take my staff in your hand, and walk; for if you find a man, do not bless us, and if a man blesses you, do not answer us; and you set my staff upon the face of the youth."30And the mother of the youth said, "Alive is the LORD and alive is your soul, if I leave you"; and he arose, and he walked after her.31And Gehazi passed on ahead of them, and he set the staff on the face of the youth, and there was no voice and no attentiveness; and he returned to meet him, and he told him, saying, "The youth did not awake."32And Elisha came to the house, and behold, the youth dead, lying upon his bed.33And he came, and he shut the door about them, and he prayed toward the LORD.34And he ascended, and he lay down upon the youth, and he set his lip upon his lip and his eye upon his eye and his palm upon his palm, and he bent down upon him, and he warmed the flesh of the youth.35And he returned, and he walked in the house one here and one here, and he ascended, and he bent down upon him, and the youth sneezed till seven beats, and the youth opened his eye.36And he called to Gehazi, and he said, "Call to the Shunammites, this one"; and he called her, and she came toward him, and he said, "Lift your son."37And she came, and she fell upon his feet, and she bowed to the ground, and she lifted her son, and she came out.
