The King James Version Bible

2 Kings 4:5-12

  1. So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.

  2. And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.

  3. Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.

  4. And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.

  5. And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.

  6. Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.

  7. And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there.

  8. And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him.
