12:004:018 And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went
           out to his father to the reapers.

12:004:019 And he said unto his father, My head, my head.  And he said to
           a lad, Carry him to his mother.

12:004:020 And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he
           sat on her knees till noon, and then died.

12:004:021 And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God,
           and shut the door upon him, and went out.

12:004:022 And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray
           thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may
           run to the man of God, and come again.

12:004:023 And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is
           neither new moon, nor sabbath.  And she said, It shall be well.

12:004:024 Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and
           go forward; slack not thy riding for me, except I bid thee.

12:004:025 So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel.  And
           it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he
           said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite: 

12:004:026 Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it
           well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with
           the child?  And she answered, It is well: 

12:004:027 And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught
           him by the feet:  but Gehazi came near to thrust her away.  And
           the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed
           within her:  and the lord hath hid it from me, and hath not
           told me.

12:004:028 Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say,
           Do not deceive me?

12:004:029 Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff
           in thine hand, and go thy way:  if thou meet any man, salute
           him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again:  and lay
           my staff upon the face of the child.

12:004:030 And the mother of the child said, As the lord liveth, and as
           thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.  And he arose, and
           followed her.

12:004:031 And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the
           face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. 
           Wherefore he went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The
           child is not awaked.

12:004:032 And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was
           dead, and laid upon his bed.

12:004:033 He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and
           prayed unto the lord.
