32 Quando Eliseu chegou, por sua vez, a criança estava efectivamente morta, deitada na cama do profeta. O profeta subiu, fechou a porta atrás de si e orou ao Senhor.

34 Depois, deitou-se sobre o corpo do menino, pondo a boca na dele, encostando os olhos mesmo aos dele e colando as mãos às da criança. O corpo da criança começou a aquecer de novo. Então desceu, e andou pela casa, de um lado para o outro, algum tempo; tornando a subir, estendeu-se novamente sobre a criança. Desta vez ela espirrou sete vezes e abriu os olhos.

32 And when Elisha came into the house, look, the child was dead, and laid on his bed.

33 He went in therefore, and shut the door on both of them, and prayed to Yahweh.

34 And he went up, and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands: and he stretched himself on him; and the flesh of the child waxed warm.

35 Then he returned, and walked in the house once to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself on him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
