2 Kings 4:27-29

New English Translation

²⁷ But when she reached the prophet on the mountain, she grabbed hold of his feet. Gehazi came near to push her away, but the prophet said, “Leave her alone, for she is very upset.^[a] The Lord has kept the matter hidden from me; he didn’t tell me about it.” ²⁸ She said, “Did I ask my master for a son? Didn’t I say, ‘Don’t mislead me?’” ²⁹ Elisha^[b] told Gehazi, “Tuck your robes into your belt, take my staff,^[c] and go! Don’t stop to exchange greetings with anyone!^[d] Place my staff on the child’s face.”
