In context

14So he asked, “Then what should be done for her?” “Well, she has no son,” Gehazi replied, “and her husband is old.”

15“Call her,” said Elisha. So Gehazi called her, and she stood in the doorway.

16And Elisha declared, “At this time next year, you will hold a son in your arms.” “No, my lord,” she said. “Do not lie to your maidservant, O man of God.”

18And the child grew, and one day he went out to his father, who was with the harvesters.
