2 Kings 4:1-11

Now there cried
<06817> (8804)

a certain
<0259>

woman
<0802>

of the wives
<0802>

of the sons
<01121>

of the prophets
<05030>

unto Elisha
<0477>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thy servant
<05650>

my husband
<0376>

is dead
<04191> (8804)_;

and thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

that thy servant
<05650>

did fear
<03373>

the LORD
<03068>_:

and the creditor
<05383> (8802)

is come
<0935> (8804)

to take
<03947> (8800)

unto him my two
<08147>

sons
<03206>

to be bondmen
<05650>_.

And Elisha
<0477>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, What shall I do
<06213> (8799)

for thee? tell
<05046> (8685)

me, what hast
<03426>

thou in the house
<01004>_?

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thine handmaid
<08198>

hath not any thing in the house
<01004>_,

save a pot
<0610>

of oil
<08081>_.

Then he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

borrow
<07592> (8798)

thee vessels
<03627>

abroad
<02351>

of all thy neighbours
<07934>_,

[even] empty
<07386>

vessels
<03627>_;

borrow not a few
<04591> (8686)_.

{borrow not...: or, scant not}

And when thou art come in
<0935> (8804)_,

thou shalt shut
<05462> (8804)

the door
<01817>

upon thee and upon thy sons
<01121>_,

and shalt pour out
<03332> (8804)

into all those vessels
<03627>_,

and thou shalt set aside
<05265> (8686)

that which is full
<04392>_.

So she went
<03212> (8799)

from him, and shut
<05462> (8799)

the door
<01817>

upon her and upon
<01157>

her sons
<01121>_,

who
<01992>

brought
<05066> (8688)

[the vessels] to her; and she poured out
<03332> (8716)_.

And it came to pass, when the vessels
<03627>

were full
<04390> (8800)_,

that she said
<0559> (8799)

unto her son
<01121>_,

Bring
<05066> (8685)

me yet a vessel
<03627>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, [There is] not a vessel
<03627>

more. And the oil
<08081>

stayed
<05975> (8799)_.

Then she came
<0935> (8799)

and told
<05046> (8686)

the man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

sell
<04376> (8798)

the oil
<08081>_,

and pay
<07999> (8761)

thy debt
<05386>_,

and live
<02421> (8799)

thou and thy children
<01121>

of the rest
<03498> (8737)_.

{debt: or, creditor}

And it fell on a day
<03117>_,

that Elisha
<0477>

passed
<05674> (8799)

to Shunem
<07766>_,

where [was] a great
<01419>

woman
<0802>_;

and she constrained
<02388> (8686)

him to eat
<0398> (8800)

bread
<03899>_.

And [so] it was, [that] as oft
<01767>

as he passed by
<05674> (8800)_,

he turned
<05493> (8799)

in thither to eat
<0398> (8800)

bread
<03899>_.

{it fell on a day: Heb. there was a day} {constrained him: Heb. laid hold on him}

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto her husband
<0376>_,

Behold now, I perceive
<03045> (8804)

that this [is] an holy
<06918>

man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

which passeth
<05674> (8802)

by us continually
<08548>_.

Let us make
<06213> (8799)

a little
<06996>

chamber
<05944>_,

I pray thee, on the wall
<07023>_;

and let us set
<07760> (8799)

for him there a bed
<04296>_,

and a table
<07979>_,

and a stool
<03678>_,

and a candlestick
<04501>_:

and it shall be, when he cometh
<0935> (8800)

to us, that he shall turn
<05493> (8799)

in thither.

And it fell on a day
<03117>_,

that he came
<0935> (8799)

thither, and he turned
<05493> (8799)

into the chamber
<05944>_,

and lay
<07901> (8799)

there.
