Elijah said to her, “Give me your son.” Elijah took the boy from her, carried him upstairs, and laid him on the bed in the room where he was staying. Then he prayed to the LORD: “LORD my God, this widow is letting me stay in her house. Why have you done this terrible thing to her and caused her son to die?” Then Elijah lay on top of the boy three times. He prayed to the LORD, “LORD my God, let this boy live again!” The LORD answered Elijah’s prayer; the boy began breathing again and was alive.
