"Then she said, "Did I desire a son of my lord? Didn't I say, Do not deceive me?""
— 2 Kings 4:28, World English Bible
“Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?”
“Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me? ”
“She said,“Did I ask my master for a son? Didn’t I say,‘Don’t mislead me?’””
“And she said to him: Did I ask a son of my lord? did I not say to thee: Do not deceive me?”
“Then she said, Did I make a request to my lord for a son? did I not say, Do not give me false words?”
“Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?”
So she went, and came to the man of God to Mount Carmel. It happened, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, "Behold, there is the Shunammite.
Please run now to meet her, and ask her, 'Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child?'" She answered, "It is well."
When she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught hold of his feet. Gehazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, "Leave her alone; for her soul is troubled within her; and Yahweh has hidden it from me, and has not told me."
Then she said, "Did I desire a son of my lord? Didn't I say, Do not deceive me?"
Then he said to Gehazi, "Tuck your cloak into your belt, take my staff in your hand, and go your way. If you meet any man, don't greet him; and if anyone greets you, don't answer him again. Then lay my staff on the face of the child."
The mother of the child said, "As Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you." He arose, and followed her.
Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff on the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Therefore he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, "The child has not awakened."
