2 Kings 8:2-8

2 Kings 8:2-8

[2] And the woman  arose,  and did  after the saying  of the man  of God:  with her household,  and sojourned  in the land  of the Philistines  seven  years.  [3] And it came to pass at the seven  years'  end,  that the woman  returned  out of the land  of the Philistines:  and she went forth  to cry  unto the king  for her house  and for her land.  [4] And the king  talked  with Gehazi  the servant  of the man  of God,  saying,  Tell  me, I pray thee, all the great things  that Elisha  hath done.  [5] And it came to pass, as he was telling  the king  a dead body  to life,  that, behold, the woman,  whose son  he had restored to life,  cried  to the king  for her house  and for her land.  And Gehazi  said,  My lord,  O king,  this is the woman,  and this is her son,  whom Elisha  restored to life.  [6] And when the king  asked  the woman,  she told  him. So the king  appointed  unto her a certain  officer,  saying,  Restore  all that was hers, and all the fruits  of the field  since the day  that she left  the land,  even until now. [7] And Elisha  came  to Damascus;  and Benhadad  the king  of Syria  was sick;  and it was told  him, saying,  The man  of God  is come  hither.  [8] And the king  said  unto Hazael,  Take  a present  in thine hand,  meet  the man  of God,  and enquire  by him, saying,  Shall I recover  of this disease?
