But the Lord hasn’t told me the reason for it. He has hidden it from me.”“ My master, did I ask you for a son?” she said.“ Didn’t I tell you,‘ Don’t make me hope for something that won’t happen’?”Elisha said to Gehazi,“ Tuck your coat into your belt. Take my walking stick and run to Shunem. Don’t say hello to anyone you see. If anyone says hello to you, don’t answer. Lay my walking stick on the boy’s face.”But the child’s mother said,“ I won’t leave you. And that’s just as sure as the Lord and you are alive.” So Elisha got up and followed her.Gehazi went on ahead. He laid Elisha’s walking stick on the boy’s face. But there wasn’t any sound. The boy didn’t move at all. So Gehazi went back to Elisha. He told him,“ The boy hasn’t awakened.”Elisha arrived at the house. The boy was dead. He was lying on Elisha’s bed.Elisha went into the room. He shut the door. He was alone with the boy. He prayed to the Lord.Then Elisha got on the bed. He lay down on the boy. His mouth touched the boy’s mouth. His eyes touched the boy’s eyes. And his hands touched the boy’s hands. As Elisha lay on the boy, the boy’s body grew warm.Elisha turned away. He walked back and forth in the room. Then he got on the bed again. He lay down on the boy once more. The boy sneezed seven times. After that, he opened his eyes.Elisha sent for Gehazi. He said to him,“ Go and get the woman from Shunem.” So he did. When she came, Elisha said,“ Take your son.”She came in and fell at Elisha’s feet. She bowed down with her face toward the ground.
