2 Kings 4:17-23 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

17. The woman conceived and bore a son at that season the next year, as Elisha had said to her.

18. When the child was grown, the day came that he went out to his father to the reapers.

19. He said to his father, "My head, my head." And he said to his servant, "Carry him to his mother."

20. When he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her lap until noon, and then died.

21. She went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door behind him and went out.

22. Then she called to her husband and said, "Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and return."

23. He said, "Why will you go to him today? It is neither new moon nor sabbath." And she said, "It will be well."
