2 Kings 4:16-19 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

16. Elisha said to her, “Next year at this time, you'll be holding your own baby son in your arms.”“You're a man of God,” the woman replied. “Please don't lie to me.”

17. But a few months later, the woman got pregnant. She gave birth to a son, just as Elisha had promised.

18. One day while the boy was still young, he was out in the fields with his father, where the workers were harvesting the crops.

19. Suddenly he shouted, “My head hurts. It hurts a lot!”“Carry him back to his mother,” the father said to his servant.
