2 Kings 8:1-3

Evangelical Heritage Version

The Widow’s Land Restored

8 Now Elisha said to the woman whose son he had brought back to life, “You and your household, make preparations and leave, and stay in whatever other country you can, for the Lord has decreed a famine that will be in the land for seven years.” ² So the woman got up and did just as the man of God said. She and her household went and lived in the land of the Philistines for seven years. ³ At the end of seven years, the woman returned from the land of the Philistines. Then she went to appeal to the king to get back her house and her fields.
