17Some time later the son of the woman who owned the house became ill. He grew worse and worse, and finally stopped breathing.

18She said to Elijah, “What do you have against me, man of God? Did you come to remind me of my sin and kill my son?” 19“Give me your son,” Elijah replied. He took him from her arms, carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his bed. 20Then he cried out to the LORD, “ LORD my God, have you brought tragedy even on this widow I am staying with, by causing her son to die?”

21Then he stretched himself out on the boy three times and cried out to the LORD, “ LORD my God, let this boy’s life return to him!” 22The LORD heard Elijah’s cry, and the boy’s life returned to him, and he lived.
