20. Then he called out to the Lord, “O Lord, my God, are you also bringing disaster on this widow I am staying with by killing her son?”

21. He stretched out over the boy three times and called out to the Lord, “O Lord, my God, please let this boy’s breath return to him.”

22. The Lord answered Elijah’s prayer; the boy’s breath returned to him and he lived.

23. Elijah took the boy, brought him down from the upper room to the house, and handed him to his mother. Elijah then said, “See, your son is alive!”

24. The woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a prophet and that the Lord really does speak through you.”
