2 Kings 4:31-35

31GehaziH1522 went onH5674 ahead of themH6440 and laidH7760 the staffH4938 onH5921 the boy’sH5288 faceH6440, but there was noH369 soundH6963 or responseH7182. So he went backH7725 to meetH7122 Elisha and toldH5046 himH559, “The boyH5288 has notH3808 awakenedH6974.”

32When ElishaH477 reachedH935 the houseH1004, there wasH2009 the boyH5288 lyingH7901 deadH4191 onH5921 his bedH4296. 33So he went inH935, closedH5462 the doorH1817 behindH1157 the two of themH8147, and prayedH6419 toH413 the LORDH3068.

34Then Elisha got on the bedH5927 and layH7901 onH5921 the boyH3206, mouthH6310 toH5921 mouthH6310, eyeH5869 toH5921 eyeH5869, and handH3709 toH5921 handH3709. As he stretched himself outH1457 over himH5921, the boy’sH3206 bodyH1320 became warmH2552. 35Elisha turned awayH7725 and pacedH1980 back and forthH259H2008 across the roomH1004. Then he got on the bedH5927 and stretched himself outH1457 over the boy againH5921, and the boyH5288H5704 sneezedH2237 sevenH7651 timesH6471 and openedH6491H5288 his eyesH5869.
