2 Kings 4:38-44
38And ElishaH477 came againH7725 to GilgalH1537: and there was a famineH7458 in the landH776; and the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 were sittingH3427 beforeH6440 him: and he saidH559 to his servantH5288, SetH8239 on the greatH1419 potH5518, and boilH1310 pottageH5138 for the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030. 39And oneH259 went outH3318 into the fieldH7704 to gatherH3950 herbsH219, and foundH4672 a wildH7704 vineH1612, and gatheredH3950 from it wildH7704 gourdsH6498 his lapH899 fullH4393, and cameH935 and shredH6398 them into the potH5518 of pottageH5138: for they knewH3045 them not. 40So they poured outH3332 for the menH582 to eatH398. And it came to pass, as they were eatingH398 of the pottageH5138, that they cried outH6817, and saidH559, O thou manH376 of GodH430, there is deathH4194 in the potH5518. And they couldH3201 not eatH398 of it . 41But he saidH559, Then bringH3947 mealH7058. And he castH7993 it into the potH5518; and he saidH559, Pour outH3332 for the peopleH5971, that they may eatH398. And there was no harmH1697H7451 in the potH5518.1 42And there cameH935 a manH376 from BaalshalishaH1190, and broughtH935 the manH376 of GodH430 breadH3899 of the firstfruitsH1061, twentyH6242 loavesH3899 of barleyH8184, and full ears of grainH3759 in its huskH6861. And he saidH559, GiveH5414 to the peopleH5971, that they may eatH398.2 43And his servantH8334 saidH559, What, should I setH5414 this beforeH6440 an hundredH3967 menH376? He said againH559, GiveH5414 the peopleH5971, that they may eatH398: for thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, They shall eatH398, and shall have some leftH3498. 44So he setH5414 it beforeH6440 them, and they ateH398, and leftH3498 some, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
