29Then he saidH559 to GehaziH1522, “12GetH2296H4975 readyH2296H4975 and 3takeH3947 my staffH4938 in your handH3027, and goH1980; ifH3588 you meetH4672 anyoneH376, do not 45greetH1288 him, and ifH3588 anyoneH376 6greetsH1288 you, do not replyH6030 to him. And 7layH7760 my staffH4938 on the boy’sH5288 faceH6440.” 30The motherH517 of the boyH5288 saidH559, “8As surely as the LordH3068 livesH2416 and you yourselfH5315 liveH2416, I will not leaveH5800 you.” So he gotH6965 upH6965 and followedH1980H310 her. 31Then GehaziH1522 wentH5674 onH5674 aheadH6440 of them and laidH7760 the staffH4938 on the boy’sH5288 faceH6440, but thereH369 wasH369 noH369 soundH6963 orH369 9responseH7182. So he returnedH7725 to meetH7122 him and informedH5046 him, sayingH559, “The boyH5288 10has not awakenedH7019.”
