8. One day Elisha went to Shunem. And a well-to-do woman was there, who urged him to stay for a meal. So whenever he passed by, he stopped there to eat.
9. She said to her husband, ‘I know that this man who often comes our way is a holy man of God.
10. Let’s make a small room on the roof and put in it a bed and a table, a chair and a lamp for him. Then he can stay there whenever he comes to us.’
11. One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there.
