2 Kings 4:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 And when she came to the man of God unto the mountain, she [a]caught him by his feet: and Gehazi went to her, to thrust her away: but the man of God said, Let her alone: for her soul is [b]vexed within her, and the Lord hath hid it from me, and hath not told it me.
28 Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Deceive me not?
29 Then he said to Gehazi, Gird thy loins, and take my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: [c]if thou meet any, salute him not: and if any salute thee, answer him not: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.
