    11One day Elisha came for a visit; he went into the upper room and rested.

    12He told his servant Gehazi,“Ask the Shunammite woman to come here.” So he did so and she came to him.

    13Elisha said to Gehazi,“Tell her,‘Look, you have treated us with such great respect. What can I do for you? Can I put in a good word for you with the king or the commander of the army?’” She replied,“I’m quite secure.”

    14So he asked Gehazi,“What can I do for her?” Gehazi replied,“She has no son, and her husband is old.”

    15Elisha told him,“Ask her to come here.” So he did so and she came and stood in the doorway.

    16He said,“About this time next year you will be holding a son.” She said,“No, my master! O prophet, do not lie to your servant!”

    17The woman did conceive, and at the specified time the next year she gave birth to a son, just as Elisha had told her.

    28She said,“Did I ask my master for a son? Didn’t I say,‘Don’t mislead me?’”

    29Elisha told Gehazi,“Tuck your robes into your belt, take my staff, and go! Don’t stop to exchange greetings with anyone! Place my staff on the child’s face.”

    30The mother of the child said,“As certainly as the LORD lives and as you live, I will not leave you.” So Elisha got up and followed her back.

    31Now Gehazi went on ahead of them. He placed the staff on the child’s face, but there was no sound or response. When he came back to Elisha he told him,“The child did not wake up.”
