2 Kings 8:1-5

1Then ElishaH477 spokeH1696 to the womanH802, whose sonH1121 he had restored to lifeH2421, sayingH559, AriseH6965, and goH3212 thou and thy householdH1004, and sojournH1481 whereverH834 thou canst sojournH1481: for the LORDH3068 hath calledH7121 for a famineH7458; and it shall also comeH935 upon the landH776 sevenH7651 yearsH8141.

2And the womanH802 aroseH6965, and didH6213 according to the sayingH1697 of the manH376 of GodH430: and she wentH3212 with her householdH1004, and sojournedH1481 in the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430 sevenH7651 yearsH8141.

3And it came to pass at the sevenH7651 yearsH8141’ endH7097, that the womanH802 returnedH7725 from the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430: and she went forthH3318 to appealH6817 to the kingH4428 for her houseH1004 and for her landH7704.

4And the kingH4428 talkedH1696 with GehaziH1522 the servantH5288 of the manH376 of GodH430, sayingH559, TellH5608 me, I pray thee, all the great thingsH1419 that ElishaH477 hath doneH6213.

5And it came to pass, as he was tellingH5608 the kingH4428 how he had restoredH2421 a dead bodyH4191 to lifeH2421, that, behold, the womanH802, whose sonH1121 he had restored to lifeH2421, appealedH6817 to the kingH4428 for her houseH1004 and for her landH7704. And GehaziH1522 saidH559, My lordH113, O kingH4428, this is the womanH802, and this is her sonH1121, whom ElishaH477 restored to lifeH2421.
