## 2 Kings 4:32-33 in Context (Verses 29–36 KJV)
 
 [29 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/29) Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.
 
 [30 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/30) And the mother of the child said, *As* the LORD liveth, and *as* thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her.
 
 [31 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/31) And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but *there was* neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.*
 
 [32 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/32) And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, *and* laid upon his bed.
 
 [33 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/33) He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto the LORD.
 
 [34 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/34) And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm.
 
 [35 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/35) Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.*
 
 [36 ](/kjv/2-kings/4/36) And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy son.
