2 Kings 4:18-27

18And when the childH3206 was grownH1431, it happened on a dayH3117, that he went outH3318 to his fatherH1 to the reapersH7114. 19And he saidH559 to his fatherH1, My headH7218, my headH7218. And he saidH559 to a ladH5288, CarryH5375 him to his motherH517. 20And when he had takenH5375 him, and broughtH935 him to his motherH517, he satH3427 on her kneesH1290 till noonH6672, and then diedH4191. 21And she went upH5927, and laidH7901 him on the bedH4296 of the manH376 of GodH430, and shutH5462 the door upon him, and went outH3318. 22And she calledH7121 to her husbandH376, and saidH559, SendH7971 me, I pray thee, oneH259 of the young menH5288, and oneH259 of the donkeysH860, that I may runH7323 to the manH376 of GodH430, and come againH7725. 23And he saidH559, Why wilt thou goH1980 to him to dayH3117? it is neither new moonH2320, nor sabbathH7676. And she saidH559, It shall be wellH7965.1 24Then she saddledH2280 a donkeyH860, and saidH559 to her servantH5288, DriveH5090, and go forwardH3212; slackH6113 not thy ridingH7392 for me, except I bidH559 thee.2 25So she wentH3212 and cameH935 to the manH376 of GodH430 to mountH2022 CarmelH3760. And it came to pass, when the manH376 of GodH430 saw her afar offH7200, that he saidH559 to GehaziH1522 his servantH5288, Behold, yonder is thatH1975 ShunammiteH7767: 26RunH7323 now, I pray thee, to meetH7125 her, and sayH559 to her, Is it wellH7965 with thee? is it wellH7965 with thy husbandH376? is it wellH7965 with the childH3206? And she answeredH559, It is wellH7965. 27And when she cameH935 to the manH376 of GodH430 to the hillH2022, she caughtH2388 him by the feetH7272: but GehaziH1522 came nearH5066 to thrust her awayH1920. And the manH376 of GodH430 saidH559, Let her aloneH7503; for her soulH5315 is sorrowfulH4843 within her: and the LORDH3068 hath hidH5956 it from me, and hath not toldH5046 me.34
