2 Kings 4:29-31

21st Century King James Version

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 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 And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice nor hearing. Therefore he went back to meet him, and told him, saying, “The child has not awakened.”
