II - Chapter 4

1A certain woman, the wife of one of the disciples of the Neviim, cried out to Elisha: “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know how your servant revered Hashem. And now a creditor is coming to seize my two children as slaves.”

2Elisha said to her, “What can I do for you? Tell me, what have you in the house?” She replied, “Your maidservant has nothing at all in the house, except a jug of oil.”

8One day Elisha visited Shunem. A wealthy woman lived there, and she urged him to have a meal; and whenever he passed by, he would stop there for a meal.

27But when she came up to the man of Hashem on the mountain, she clasped his feet. Gehazi stepped forward to push her away; but the man of Hashem said, “Let her alone, for she is in bitter distress; and Hashem has hidden it from me and has not told me.”

40and they served it for the men to eat. While they were still eating of the stew, they began to cry out: “O man of Hashem, there is death in the pot!” And they could not eat it.

41“Fetch some flour,” [Elisha] said. He threw it into the pot and said, “Serve it to the people and let them eat.” And there was no longer anything harmful in the pot.

42A man came from Baal-shalishah and he brought the man of Hashem some bread of the first reaping—twenty loaves of barley bread, and some fresh grain in his sack. And [Elisha] said, “Give it to the people and let them eat.”

43His attendant replied, “How can I set this before a hundred men?” But he said, “Give it to the people and let them eat. For thus said Hashem: They shall eat and have some left over.”

44So he set it before them; and when they had eaten, they had some left over, as Hashem had said.
