וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אֵ֣ם הַנַּ֔עַר חַי־יְהוָ֥ה וְחֵֽי־נַפְשְׁךָ֖ אִם־אֶעֶזְבֶ֑ךָּ וַיָּ֖קָם וַיֵּ֥לֶךְ אַחֲרֶֽיהָ׃
האָט געזאָגט די מוטער פֿון ייִנגל: אַזױ װי גאָט לעבט, און אַזױ װי דײַן זעל לעבט, אױב איך װעל דיך אָפּלאָזן! איז ער אױפֿגעשטאַנען און איז געגאַנגען נאָך איר.
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“The boy’s mother said: as the Lord lives, and as you live, etc.” [4:30]. The mother said to Elisha. As God lives and by your life, I will not leave you. You must go with me. Elisha went with her. Gehazi ran ahead and put the staff on the dead child, and he did not move. Gehazi ran toward Elisha and said: the child won’t get up or wake up. That is, he remains dead. Elisha came to the house and the child lay dead on his bed.
