Elisha prays to the LORD and stretches himself on the child, and the child opens his eyes

엘리사가 여호와께 기도하고 아이 위에 엎드리매 아이가 눈을 뜸

2 Kings 4:32–37: when Elisha had come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and lying on his bed. He goes in therefore, and shuts the door on them both, and prays to the LORD. The text says, “He went up and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands. He stretched himself on him; and the child’s flesh grew warm.” Then he returns, and walks in the house once back and forth, then goes up and stretches himself out on him. Then the child sneezes seven times, and the child opens his eyes. He calls Gehazi, and says, “Call this Shunammite!” So he calls her. When she had come in to him, he says, “Take up your son.” Then she goes in, falls at his feet, and bows herself to the ground; then she picks up her son, and goes out. The Korean Revised Version names Elisha at 4:33, 4:35, 4:36 and 4:37 (엘리사가, 엘리사의), where WEB reads “He”, “he” and “his”; at 4:33 it says that the two of them were alone (두 사람 뿐이라); and it writes 4:34 with commas: 자기 입을 그 입에, 자기 눈을 그 눈에, 자기 손을 그 손에.
