    11One day he came there, and he turned into the room and lay there.

    12He said to Gehazi his servant, "Call this Shunammite." When he had called her, she stood before him.

    13He said to him, "Say now to her, 'Behold, you have cared for us with all this care. What is to be done for you? Would you like to be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the army?'" She answered, "I dwell among my own people."

    14He said, "What then is to be done for her?" Gehazi answered, "Most certainly she has no son, and her husband is old."

    15He said, "Call her." When he had called her, she stood in the door.

    16He said, "At this season, when the time comes around, you will embrace a son." She said, "No, my lord, you man of God, do not lie to your handmaid."

    17The woman conceived, and bore a son at that season, when the time came around, as Elisha had said to her.

    18When the child was grown, it happened one day that he went out to his father to the reapers.

    19He said to his father, "My head! My head!" He said to his servant, "Carry him to his mother."

    20When he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees until noon, and then died.

    21She went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door on him, and went out.

    22She called to her husband, and said, "Please send me one of the servants, and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God, and come again."

    23He said, "Why would you want go to him today? It is neither new moon nor Sabbath." She said, "It's alright."

    24Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, "Drive, and go forward! Don't slow down for me, unless I ask you to."

    25So she went, and came to the man of God to Mount Carmel. It happened, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, "Behold, there is the Shunammite.

    26Please run now to meet her, and ask her, 'Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child?'" She answered, "It is well."

    27When she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught hold of his feet. Gehazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, "Leave her alone; for her soul is troubled within her; and Yahweh has hidden it from me, and has not told me."

    28Then she said, "Did I desire a son of my lord? Didn't I say, Do not deceive me?"

    29Then he said to Gehazi, "Tuck your cloak into your belt, take my staff in your hand, and go your way. If you meet any man, don't greet him; and if anyone greets you, don't answer him again. Then lay my staff on the face of the child."

    30The mother of the child said, "As Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you." He arose, and followed her.

    31Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff on the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Therefore he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, "The child has not awakened."

    32When Elisha had come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid on his bed.

    33He went in therefore, and shut the door on them both, and prayed to Yahweh.

    34He went up, and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands. He stretched himself on him; and the flesh of the child grew warm.

    35Then he returned, and walked in the house once back and forth; and went up, and stretched himself on him. Then the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.

    36He called Gehazi, and said, "Call this Shunammite!" So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, "Take up your son."

    17It happened after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so severe, that there was no breath left in him.

    18She said to Elijah, "What have I to do with you, you man of God? You have come to me to bring my sin to memory, and to kill my son!"

    19He said to her, "Give me your son." He took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the room where he stayed, and laid him on his own bed.

    20He cried to Yahweh, and said, "Yahweh my God, have you also brought evil on the widow with whom I stay, by killing her son?"

    21He stretched himself on the child three times, and cried to Yahweh, and said, "Yahweh my God, please let this child's soul come into him again."
