1 Kings 17:17-24
LaterH310H1697H428, the sonH1121 of the womanH802 who ownedH1172 the houseH1004H1961 became illH2470, and his sicknessH2483 grew worseH2389 and worseH3966, untilH5704 noH3808 breathH5397 remainedH3498 in him. 18“O manH376 of GodH430,” saidH559 the woman toH413 ElijahH452, “whatH4100 have you done to me? Have you comeH935H413 to remind meH2142 of my iniquityH5771 and cause the deathH4191 of my sonH1121?”
19But Elijah saidH559 to herH413, “GiveH5414 me your sonH1121.”
So he took himH3947 from her armsH2436, carried himH5927 toH413 the upper roomH5944 whereH834 heH1931 was stayingH3427H8033, and laid himH7901 onH5921 his own bedH4296. 20Then he cried outH7121 toH413 the LORDH3068, “O LORDH3068 my GodH430, have You alsoH1571 brought tragedyH7489 onH5921 this widowH490 who has opened her home to meH589H1481H5973, by causingH4191 her son to dieH1121?” 21Then he stretched himself outH4058 overH5921 the childH3206 threeH7969 timesH6471 and cried outH7121 toH413 the LORDH3068, “O LORDH3068 my GodH430, pleaseH4994 let thisH2088 boy’sH3206 lifeH5315 returnH7725 toH5921 himH7130!”
22And the LORDH3068 listenedH8085 to the voiceH6963 of ElijahH452, and the child’sH3206 lifeH5315 returnedH7725 toH5921 himH7130, and he livedH2421. 23Then ElijahH452 tookH3947 the childH3206, brought him downH3381 fromH4480 the upper roomH5944 into the houseH1004, and gave himH5414 to his motherH517. “LookH7200, your sonH1121 is aliveH2416,” ElijahH452 declaredH559.
24Then the womanH802 saidH559 toH413 ElijahH452, “NowH6258H2088 I knowH3045 thatH3588 youH859 are a manH376 of GodH430 and that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 from your mouthH6310 is truthH571.”
