18. Then the woman said to Elijah, “You are a man of God. Can you help me? Or did you come here only to remind me of my sins and to make my son die?”
19. Elijah said to her, “Give me your son.” He took the boy from her and carried him upstairs. He laid him on the bed in the room where he was staying.
20. Then Elijah cried out to the Lord. He said, “Lord my God, this widow is letting me stay in her house. Will you do this bad thing to her? Will you cause her son to die?”
21. Then Elijah lay on top of the boy three times. He prayed, “Lord my God, let this boy live again!”
22. The Lord answered Elijah’s prayer. The boy began breathing again and was alive.
