2 Kings 8:1-4 World English Bible (WEB)

1. Now Elisha had spoken to the woman whose son he had restored to life, saying, “Arise, and go, you and your household, and stay for a while wherever you can; for Yahweh has called for a famine. It will also come on the land for seven years.”

2. The woman arose, and did according to the man of God’s word. She went with her household, and lived in the land of the Philistines for seven years.

3. At the end of seven years, the woman returned from the land of the Philistines. Then she went out to beg the king for her house and for her land.

4. Now the king was talking with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, “Please tell me all the great things that Elisha has done.”
