2 Kings 4:16-19

The Message

¹⁶ Elisha said to her, “This time next year you’re going to be nursing an infant son.”

“O my master, O Holy Man,” she said, “don’t play games with me, teasing me with such fantasies!”

¹⁷ The woman conceived. A year later, just as Elisha had said, she had a son.

^18-19 The child grew up. One day he went to his father, who was working with the harvest hands, complaining, “My head, my head!”

His father ordered a servant, “Carry him to his mother.”
