32 When Elisha had come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and lying on his bed. 33 He went in therefore, and shut the door on them both, and prayed to Yahweh. 34 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. He stretched himself on him; and the child’s flesh grew warm. 35 Then he returned, and walked in the house once back and forth, then went up and stretched himself out on him. Then the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.

32 En toe El¡sa in die huis kom, was die seun dood, neergelê op sy bed!

33 En hy het ingegaan en die deur agter hulle twee toegesluit en tot die HERE gebid.

34 Daarna klim hy op en gaan lê op die kind en sit sy mond op die se mond en sy oë op die se oë en sy hande op die se hande en buig oor hom neer; en die vlees van die kind het warm geword.

35 Daarop het hy teruggekom en in die huis een keer heen en weer geloop, om dan opnuut op te klim en oor hom neer te buig; en die seun het sewe maal genies; en die seun het sy oë oopgemaak.
