6. When the containers were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another container.”He said to her, “There isn’t another container.” Then the oil stopped flowing.
7. Then she came and told the man of God. He said, “Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt; and you and your sons live on the rest.”
8. One day Elisha went to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman; and she persuaded him to eat bread. So it was, that as often as he passed by, he turned in there to eat bread.
9. She said to her husband, “See now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God who passes by us continually.
10. Please let’s make a little room on the roof. Let’s set a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp stand for him there. When he comes to us, he can stay there.”
11. One day he came there, and he went to the room and lay there.
12. He said to Gehazi his servant, “Call this Shunammite.” When he had called her, she stood before him.
13. He said to him, “Say now to her, ‘Behold, you have cared for us with all this care. What is to be done for you? Would you like to be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the army?’”She answered, “I dwell amongst my own people.”
14. He said, “What then is to be done for her?”Gehazi answered, “Most certainly she has no son, and her husband is old.”
15. He said, “Call her.” When he had called her, she stood in the door.
16. He said, “At this season, when the time comes around, you will embrace a son.”She said, “No, my lord, you man of God, do not lie to your servant.”
17. The woman conceived, and bore a son at that season, when the time came around, as Elisha had said to her.
18. When the child was grown, one day he went out to his father to the reapers.
19. He said to his father, “My head! My head!”He said to his servant, “Carry him to his mother.”
20. When he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees until noon, and then died.
21. She went up and laid him on the man of God’s bed, and shut the door on him, and went out.
22. She called to her husband, and said, “Please send me one of the servants, and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.”
23. He said, “Why would you want go to him today? It is not a new moon or a Sabbath.”She said, “It’s alright.”
24. Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, “Drive, and go forward! Don’t slow down for me, unless I ask you to.”
25. So she went, and came to the man of God to Mount Carmel. When the man of God saw her afar off, he said to Gehazi his servant, “Behold, there is the Shunammite.
26. Please run now to meet her, and ask her, ‘Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with your child?’”She answered, “It is well.”
