2 Kings 4:3 in Context — 2 Kings 4

1 Uma mulher, das mulheres dos filhos dos profetas, clamou a Eliseu, dizendo: Teu servo, meu marido, é morto; e tu sabes que teu servo era temeroso ao SENHOR; e veio o credor para tomar-se dois filhos meus por servos.

2 E Eliseu lhe disse: que te farei eu? Declara-me o que tens em casa. E ela disse: Tua serva nenhuma coisa tem em casa, a não ser uma botija de azeite.

3 E ele lhe disse: Vai, e pede para ti vasos emprestados de todos teus vizinhos, vasos vazios, não poucos.

4 Entra logo, e fecha a porta atrás de ti e atrás teus filhos; e deita em todos os vasos, e em estando um cheio, põe-o à parte.

5 E partiu-se a mulher dele, e fechou a porta atrás si e atrás seus filhos; e eles lhe traziam os vasos, e ela deitava do azeite.
