2 Kings 4:39 in Context — 2 Kings 4
37 E assim que ela entrou, lançou-se a seus pés, e inclinou-se a terra: depois tomou seu filho, e saiu-se.
38 E Eliseu se voltou a Gilgal. Havia então grande fome na terra. E os filhos dos profetas estavam com ele, pelo que disse a seu criado: Põe uma grande caçarola, e faze sopa para os filhos dos profetas.
39 E saiu um ao campo a colher ervas, e achou uma como parreira selvagem, e agarrou dela uma capa de frutos silvestres; e voltou, e cortou-as na caçarola da sopa: porque não sabia o que era.
40 Serviu depois para que comessem os homens; mas sucedeu que comendo eles daquele guisado, deram vozes, dizendo: Homem de Deus, há morte na caçarola! E não o puderam comer.
41 Ele então disse: Trazei farinha. E espalhou-a na caçarola, e disse: Dá de comer à gente. E não houve mais mal na caçarola.
