2 Kings 8:3 in Context — 2 Kings 8

1 E Eliseu falou àquela mulher a cujo filho havia feito viver, dizendo: Levanta-te, vai tu e toda a tua casa a viver de onde puderes; porque o SENHOR chamou a fome, a qual virá também sobre a terra sete anos.

2 Então a mulher se levantou, e fez como o homem de Deus lhe disse: e partiu-se ela com sua família, e viveu na terra dos filisteus durante sete anos.

3 E quando foram passados os sete anos, a mulher voltou da terra dos filisteus; depois saiu para clamar ao rei por sua casa, e por suas terras.

4 E havia o rei falado com Geazi, criado do homem de Deus, dizendo-lhe: Rogo-te que me contes todas as maravilhas que Eliseu fez.

5 E contando ele ao rei como havia feito viver a um morto, eis que a mulher, a cujo filho havia feito viver, veio clamar ao rei por sua casa e por suas terras. Então Geazi disse: Ó rei, meu senhor, esta é a mulher, e este é seu filho, ao qual Eliseu fez viver.
