2 Kings 4:2-6

2And ElishaH477 saidH559 unto her, What shall I do for thee? tellH5046 me; what hast thou in the houseH1004? And she saidH559, Thy handmaid hath not anything in the houseH1004, save a pot of oilH8081.

3Then he saidH559, Go, borrow thee vesselsH3627 abroad of all thy neighborsH7934, even emptyH7386 vesselsH3627; borrow not a fewH4591.

4And thou shalt goH935 in, and shutH5462 the doorH1817 upon thee and upon thy sonsH1121, and pourH3332 out into all those vesselsH3627; and thou shalt setH5265 aside that which is fullH4392.

5So she went from him, and shutH5462 the doorH1817 upon her and upon her sonsH1121; they broughtH5066 the vessels to her, and she pouredH3332 out.

6And it came to pass, when the vesselsH3627 wereH1961 fullH4390, that she saidH559 unto her sonH1121, BringH5066 me yetH5750 a vesselH3627. And he saidH559 unto her, There is not a vesselH3627 more. And the oilH8081 stayed.
