2 Kings 4:31-35

31Then Gehazi went on ahead of them and laid the staff on the boy’s face, but there was no sound or 1response. So he returned to meet him and informed him, saying, “The boy 2has not awakened.”

32When Elisha entered the house, behold the boy was dead, laid on his bed. 33So he entered and 3shut the door behind them both, and he prayed to the Lord. 34Then 4he got up on the bed and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, his eyes on his eyes, his hands on his hands, and he bent down on him; and the flesh of the child became warm. 35Then he returned and walked in the house back and forth once, and went up and 5bent down on him; and the boy sneezed seven times, then the boy opened his eyes.
