2 Kings 4:29-31

English Standard Version

²⁹ He said to Gehazi, ^(A)“Tie up your garment and ^(B)take my staff in your hand and go. If you meet anyone, ^(C)do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not reply. And ^(D)lay my staff on the face of the child.” ³⁰ Then the mother of the child said, ^(E)“As the Lord lives and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.” So he arose and followed her. ³¹ Gehazi went on ahead and laid the staff on the face of the child, but there was no sound or sign of life. Therefore he returned to meet him and told him, “The child ^(F)has not awakened.”
