2 Kings 4:8-12 Amplified Bible (AMP)

8. One day Elisha went on to Shunem, where a rich and influential woman lived, who insisted on his eating a meal. Afterward, whenever he passed by, he stopped there for a meal.

9. And she said to her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God who passes by continually.

10. Let us make a small chamber on the [housetop] and put there for him a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp. Then whenever he comes to us, he can go [up the outside stairs and rest] here.

11. One day he came and turned into the chamber and lay there.

12. And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. When he had called her, she stood before him.
