So she went away, and when the door was shut on her and her sons, they took the vessels to her and she put oil into them.
6
And when all the vessels were full, she said to her son, Get me another vessel. And he said, There are no more. And the flow of oil was stopped.

So he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi made answer, Still there is this, she has no son and her husband is old.

Then he said, Send for her. And in answer to his voice she took her place at the door.
