2 Kings 4 (WEBP)

[1] Now a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead. You know that your servant feared Yahweh. Now the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be slaves.”
[2] Elisha said to her, “What should I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” She said, “Your servant has nothing in the house, except a pot of oil.”
[3] Then he said, “Go, borrow empty containers from all your neighbors. Don’t borrow just a few containers.
[4] Go in and shut the door on you and on your sons, and pour oil into all those containers; and set aside those which are full.”
[5] So she went from him, and shut the door on herself and on her sons. They brought the containers to her, and she poured oil.
[6] When the containers were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another container.” He said to her, “There isn’t another container.” Then the oil stopped flowing.
[7] Then she came and told the man of God. He said, “Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt; and you and your sons live on the rest.”
[8] One day Elisha went to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman; and she persuaded him to eat bread. So it was, that as often as he passed by, he turned in there to eat bread.
[9] She said to her husband, “See now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God who passes by us continually.
[10] Please, let’s make a little room on the roof. Let’s set a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp stand for him there. When he comes to us, he can stay there.”
[11] One day he came there, and he went to the room and lay there.
[12] He said to Gehazi his servant, “Call this Shunammite.” When he had called her, she stood before him.
[13] He 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.”
[14] He said, “What then is to be done for her?” Gehazi answered, “Most certainly she has no son, and her husband is old.”
[15] He said, “Call her.” When he had called her, she stood in the door.
[16] He said, “At this season next year, you will embrace a son.” She said, “No, my lord, you man of God, do not lie to your servant.”
[17] The woman conceived, and bore a son at that season when the time came around, as Elisha had said to her.
[18] When the child was grown, one day he went out to his father to the reapers.
[19] He said to his father, “My head! My head!” He said to his servant, “Carry him to his mother.”
[20] When he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees until noon, and then died.
[21] She went up and laid him on the man of God’s bed, and shut the door on him, and went out.
[22] She 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.”
[23] He said, “Why would you want to go to him today? It is not a new moon or a Sabbath.” She said, “It’s all right.”
[24] Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, “Drive, and go forward! Don’t slow down for me, unless I ask you to.”
[25] So she went, and came to the man of God to Mount Carmel. When the man of God saw her afar off, he said to Gehazi his servant, “Behold, there is the Shunammite.
[26] Please run now to meet her, and ask her, ‘Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with your child?’” She answered, “It is well.”
[27] When 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.”
[28] Then she said, “Did I ask you for a son, my lord? Didn’t I say, ‘Do not deceive me’?”
[29] Then 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 child’s face.”
[30] The child’s mother said, “As Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So he arose, and followed her.
[31] Gehazi went ahead of them, and laid the staff on the child’s face; but there was no voice and no hearing. Therefore he returned to meet him, and told him, “The child has not awakened.”
[32] When Elisha had come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and lying on his bed.
[33] He went in therefore, and shut the door on them both, and prayed to Yahweh.
[34] He 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 child’s flesh grew warm.
[35] Then he returned, and walked in the house once back and forth, then went up and stretched himself out on him. Then the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
[36] He called Gehazi, and said, “Call this Shunammite!” So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, “Take up your son.”
[37] Then she went in, fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; then she picked up her son, and went out.
[38] Elisha came again to Gilgal. There was a famine in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him; and he said to his servant, “Get the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets.”
[39] One went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered a lap full of wild gourds from it, and came and cut them up into the pot of stew; for they didn’t recognize them.
[40] So they poured out for the men to eat. As they were eating some of the stew, they cried out and said, “Man of God, there is death in the pot!” And they could not eat it.
[41] But he said, “Then bring meal.” He threw it into the pot; and he said, “Serve it to the people, that they may eat.” And there was nothing harmful in the pot.
[42] A man from Baal Shalishah came, and brought the man of God some bread of the first fruits: twenty loaves of barley and fresh ears of grain in his sack. Elisha said, “Give to the people, that they may eat.”
[43] His servant said, “What, should I set this before a hundred men?” But he said, “Give it to the people, that they may eat; for Yahweh says, ‘They will eat, and will have some left over.’”
[44] So he set it before them and they ate and had some left over, according to Yahweh’s word.

2 Kings 4 (KJVS)

[1] Now there cried () a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, () Thy servant my husband is dead; () and thou knowest () that thy servant did fear the Lord: and the creditor () is come () to take () unto him my two sons to be bondmen.
[2] And Elisha said () unto her, What shall I do () for thee? tell () me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, () Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.
[3] Then he said, () Go, () borrow () thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. ()
[4] And when thou art come in, () thou shalt shut () the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out () into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside () that which is full.
[5] So she went () from him, and shut () the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought () the vessels to her; and she poured out. ()
[6] And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, () that she said () unto her son, Bring () me yet a vessel. And he said () unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed. ()
[7] Then she came () and told () the man of God. And he said, () Go, () sell () the oil, and pay () thy debt, and live () thou and thy children of the rest. ()
[8] And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed () to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained () him to eat () bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, () he turned () in thither to eat () bread.
[9] And she said () unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive () that this is an holy man of God, which passeth () by us continually.
[10] Let us make () a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set () for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh () to us, that he shall turn () in thither.
[11] And it fell on a day, that he came () thither, and he turned () into the chamber, and lay () there.
[12] And he said () to Gehazi his servant, Call () this Shunammite. And when he had called () her, she stood () before him.
[13] And he said () unto him, Say () now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful () for us with all this care; what is to be done () for thee? wouldest thou be spoken () for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, () I dwell () among mine own people.
[14] And he said, () What then is to be done () for her? And Gehazi answered, () Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old. ()
[15] And he said, () Call () her. And when he had called () her, she stood () in the door.
[16] And he said, () About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace () a son. And she said, () Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie () unto thine handmaid.
[17] And the woman conceived, () and bare () a son at that season that Elisha had said () unto her, according to the time of life.
[18] And when the child was grown, () it fell on a day, that he went out () to his father to the reapers. ()
[19] And he said () unto his father, My head, my head. And he said () to a lad, Carry () him to his mother.
[20] And when he had taken () him, and brought () him to his mother, he sat () on her knees till noon, and then died. ()
[21] And she went up, () and laid () him on the bed of the man of God, and shut () the door upon him, and went out. ()
[22] And she called () unto her husband, and said, () Send () me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run () to the man of God, and come again. ()
[23] And he said, () Wherefore wilt thou go () to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, () It shall be well.
[24] Then she saddled () an ass, and said () to her servant, Drive, () and go forward; () slack () not thy riding () for me, except I bid () thee.
[25] So she went () and came () unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, () that he said () to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite:
[26] run () now, I pray thee, to meet () her, and say () unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, () It is well.
[27] And when she came () to the man of God to the hill, she caught () him by the feet: but Gehazi came near () to thrust her away. () And the man of God said, () Let her alone; () for her soul is vexed () within her: and the Lord hath hid () it from me, and hath not told () me.
[28] Then she said, () Did I desire () a son of my lord? did I not say, () Do not deceive () me?
[29] Then he said () to Gehazi, Gird up () thy loins, and take () my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: () if thou meet () any man, salute () him not; and if any salute () thee, answer him not again: () and lay () my staff upon the face of the child.
[30] And the mother of the child said, () As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave () thee. And he arose, () and followed () her.
[31] And Gehazi passed on () before them, and laid () the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he went again () to meet () him, and told () him, saying, () The child is not awaked. ()
[32] And when Elisha was come () into the house, behold, the child was dead, () and laid () upon his bed.
[33] He went in () therefore, and shut () the door upon them twain, and prayed () unto the Lord.
[34] And he went up, () and lay () upon the child, and put () his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched () himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm. ()
[35] Then he returned, () and walked () in the house to and fro; and went up, () and stretched () himself upon him: and the child sneezed () seven times, and the child opened () his eyes.
[36] And he called () Gehazi, and said, () Call () this Shunammite. So he called () her. And when she was come in () unto him, he said, () Take up () thy son.
[37] Then she went in, () and fell () at his feet, and bowed () herself to the ground, and took up () her son, and went out. ()
[38] And Elisha came again () to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting () before him: and he said () unto his servant, Set () on the great pot, and seethe () pottage for the sons of the prophets.
[39] And one went out () into the field to gather () herbs, and found () a wild vine, and gathered () thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came () and shred () them into the pot of pottage: for they knew () them not.
[40] So they poured out () for the men to eat. () And it came to pass, as they were eating () of the pottage, that they cried out, () and said, () O thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could () not eat () thereof.
[41] But he said, () Then bring () meal. And he cast () it into the pot; and he said, () Pour out () for the people, that they may eat. () And there was no harm in the pot.
[42] And there came () a man from Baal-shalisha, and brought () the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he said, () Give () unto the people, that they may eat. ()
[43] And his servitor () said, () What, should I set () this before an hundred men? He said again, () Give () the people, that they may eat: () for thus saith () the Lord, They shall eat, () and shall leave () thereof.
[44] So he set () it before them, and they did eat, () and left () thereof, according to the word of the Lord.
