New Testament

2 Kings 4:2-6 Modern English Version (MEV)

2. Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?”She said, “Your servant has nothing in the house except a jar of oil.”

3. Then he said, “Go, ask for vessels from all your neighbors, empty vessels and not just a few.

4. Then go in, shut the door behind you and your sons, and pour the oil into all these vessels. When each is full, set it aside.”

5. So she left him and shut the door behind her and her sons, and they kept bringing vessels to her, and she kept pouring.

6. When the vessels were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.”But he said to her, “There is not another vessel.” And the oil ceased.
