【王下4:14】 以利沙对仆人说,究竟当为她作什么呢?基哈西说,她没有儿子,她丈夫也老了。
And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old.
【王下4:15】 以利沙说,再叫她来。于是叫了她来,她就站在门口。
And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door.
【王下4:16】 以利沙说,明年到这时候,你必抱一个儿子。她说,神人,我主阿,不要那样欺哄婢女。
And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.
【王下4:17】 妇人果然怀孕,到了那时候,生了一个儿子,正如以利沙所说的。
And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.
【王下4:18】 孩子渐渐长大,一日到他父亲和收割的人那里,
And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
【王下4:19】 他对父亲说,我的头阿,我的头阿。他父亲对仆人说,把他抱到他母亲那里。
And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.
【王下4:20】 仆人抱去,交给他母亲。孩子坐在母亲的膝上,到晌午就死了。
And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.
【王下4:21】 他母亲抱他上了楼,将他放在神人的床上,关上门出来,
And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out.
【王下4:22】 呼叫她丈夫说,你叫一个仆人给我牵一匹驴来,我要快快地去见神人,就回来。
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.
【王下4:23】 丈夫说,今日不是月朔,也不是安息日,你为何要去见他呢?妇人说,平安无事。
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.
【王下4:24】 于是备上驴,对仆人说,你快快赶着走,我若不吩咐你,就不要迟慢。
Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not thy riding for me, except I bid thee.
【王下4:25】 妇人就往迦密山去见神人。神人远远地看见她,对仆人基哈西说,看哪,书念的妇人来了。
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:
【王下4:26】 你跑去迎接她,问她说,你平安吗?你丈夫平安吗?孩子平安吗?她说,平安。
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:
【王下4:27】 妇人上了山,到神人那里,就抱住神人的脚。基哈西前来要推开她,神人说,由她吧。因为她心里愁苦,耶和华向我隐瞒,没有指示我。
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.
【王下4:28】 妇人说,我何尝向我主求过儿子呢?我岂没有说过,不要欺哄我吗?
Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?
【王下4:29】 以利沙吩咐基哈西说,你束上腰,手拿我的杖前去。若遇见人,不要向他问安。人若向你问安,也不要回答。要把我的杖放在孩子脸上。
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.
【王下4:30】 孩子的母亲说,我指着永生的耶和华,又敢在你面前起誓,我必不离开你。于是以利沙起身,随着她去了。
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.
【王下4:31】 基哈西先去,把杖放在孩子脸上,却没有声音,也没有动静。基哈西就迎着以利沙回来,告诉他说,孩子还没有醒过来。
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.
【王下4:32】 以利沙来到,进了屋子,看见孩子死了,放在自己的床上。
And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed.
【王下4:33】 他就关上门,只有自己和孩子在里面,他便祈祷耶和华,
He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto the LORD.
【王下4:34】 上床伏在孩子身上,口对口,眼对眼,手对手。既伏在孩子身上,孩子的身体就渐渐温和了。
And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm.【王下4:35】 然后他下来,在屋里来往走了一趟,又上去伏在孩子身上,孩子打了七个喷嚏,就睁开眼睛了。
Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
【王下4:36】 以利沙叫基哈西说,你叫这书念妇人来。于是叫了她来。以利沙说,将你儿子抱起来。
And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy son.
【王下4:37】 妇人就进来,在以利沙脚前俯伏于地,抱起她儿子出去了。
Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.
