2 Kings 4:29-31

Living Bible

²⁹ Then he said to Gehazi, “Quick, take my staff! Don’t talk to anyone along the way. Hurry! Lay the staff upon the child’s face.”

³⁰ But the boy’s mother said, “I swear to God that I won’t go home without you.” So Elisha returned with her.

³¹ Gehazi went on ahead and laid the staff upon the child’s face, but nothing happened. There was no sign of life. He returned to meet Elisha and told him, “The child is still dead.”
