Tree Of Life Version

1 Kings 17:15-24 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

15. So she went and did according to the word of Elijah—and she and he, and her household ate for many days.

16. The jar of flour was not exhausted, nor did the jug of oil become empty, according to the word of Adonai which He spoke through Elijah.

17. After these things, it came to pass that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house fell sick, and his sickness was getting much worse until he had no breath left in him.

18. So she said to Elijah, “What do I have to do with you, man of God? Have you come to me to remind me of my sin and kill my son?”

19. He said to her, “Give me your son.” Then he took him from her arms, carried him up to the upper room where he was staying and laid him on his own bed.

20. He cried out to Adonai and said, “Adonai my God, have You brought such evil even on the widow with whom I am staying, by causing her son to die?”

21. Then he stretched himself upon the child three times. He cried out to Adonai and said, “Adonai my God, please let this child’s soul come back into his body!”

22. Adonai listened to the cry of Elijah, so the soul of the child came back into his body and he was revived.

23. Then Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper room into the house, and gave him to his mother. Elijah said, “See! Your son is alive.”

24. Then the woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the word in your mouth is truth.”
