And Eli '
sha said to her , "
What shall I do for you ?
Tell me ;
what have you in the house ?"
And she said , "
Your maidservant has nothing in the house ,
except a jar of oil ."
*
Then he said , "
Go outside ,
borrow vessels of all your neighbors ,
empty vessels and not too few .
*
Then go in ,
and shut the door upon yourself and your sons ,
and pour into all these vessels ;
and when one is full ,
set it aside ."
*
So she went from him and shut the door upon herself and her sons ;
and as she poured they brought the vessels to her .
*
When the vessels were full ,
she said to her son , "
Bring me another vessel ."
And he said to her , "
There is not another ."
Then the oil stopped flowing .
*
She came and told the man of God ,
and he said , "
Go ,
sell the oil and pay your debts ,
and you and your sons can live on the rest ."
