Melachim Bais 4:32-41 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

32. And when Elishah was come into the bais, hinei, the na'ar was dead, and lying upon his mittah.

33. So he went in, and shut the delet on the two of them, and davened unto Hashem.

34. And he went up, and lay upon the yeled, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his palms upon his palms: and stretched himself upon him; and the basar of the yeled grew warm.

35. Then he turned away, and paced in the bais to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him; and the na'ar sneezed seven times, and the na'ar opened his eyes.

36. And he summoned Geichazi, and said, Call this Shunamit. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy ben.

37. Then she went in, and fell at his raglayim, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her ben, and went out.

38. And Elishah returned to Gilgal; and there was a ra'av (famine) in the land; and the Bnei HaNevi'im were sitting before him; and he said unto his na'ar, Put on the siyr hagedolah, and cook stew for the Bnei HaNevi'im.

39. And one went out into the sadeh to gather orot (herbs), and found a gefen sadeh, and gathered thereof pakku'ot sadeh (wild gourds), the fold of his beged he filled, and came and cut them up into the siyr of stew; though no one knew what they were.

40. So they poured out for the anashim to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the stew, that they cried out, and said, O thou Ish HaElohim, there is mavet in the siyr. And they could not eat thereof.

41. But he said, Then bring kemakh (meal, flour). And he cast it into the siyr; and he said, Serve to HaAm, that they may eat. And there was no rah in the siyr.
