1 Kings 17:17-23
17Now it happenedH1961 afterH310 theseH428 thingsH1697 that the sonH1121 of the womanH802, the mistressH1172 of the houseH1004, becameH2470 sickH2470; and his 1conditionH2483 becameH1961 veryH3966 graveH2389, untilH5704 at the end 2he wasH3498 noH3808 longerH3498 breathingH5397.
18So she saidH559 to ElijahH452, “34WhyH4100 is my business any of yours, you 5manH376 of GodH430? Yet you have comeH935 to me to bringH2142 my wrongdoingH5771 toH2142 remembranceH2142, and to putH4191 my sonH1121 toH4191 deathH4191!”
19But he saidH559 to her, “GiveH5414 me your sonH1121.” Then he tookH3947 him from her 6armsH2436 and carriedH5927 him upH5927 to the upstairsH5944 roomH5944 whereH834H8033 he was livingH3427, and laidH7901 him on his own bedH4296.
20And he calledH7121 to the LordH3068 and saidH559, “LordH3068, my GodH430, have You alsoH1571 broughtH7489 catastropheH7489 upon the widowH490 with whomH834 I am 7stayingH1481, by causing her sonH1121 to dieH4191?”
218Then he stretchedH4058 himself outH4058 overH5921 the boyH3206 threeH7969 timesH6471, and calledH7121 to the LordH3068 and saidH559, “LordH3068, my GodH430, pleaseH4994, let thisH2088 boy’sH3206 lifeH5315 returnH7725 9to him.”
22And the LordH3068 listenedH8085 to the voiceH6963 of ElijahH452, 10and the lifeH5315 of the boyH3206 returnedH7725 11to him and he revivedH2421.
23ElijahH452 then tookH3947 the boyH3206 and broughtH3381 him downH3381 from the upstairsH5944 roomH5944 into the houseH1004 and gaveH5414 him to his motherH517; and ElijahH452 saidH559, “SeeH7200, your sonH1121 is aliveH2416.”
