પછી તે સ્રી એલિશા પાસેથી ગઈ અને તેણે તથા તેના દીકરાઓએ ઘરમાં જઈને બારણું બંધ કરી દીધું. તેઓ તેની પાસે વાસણો લાવતા ગયા અને તે વાસણોમાં તેલ રેડતી ગઈ.

In context

3Then he said, “Go, borrow empty containers from all your neighbors. Don’t borrow just a few containers.

4Go in and shut the door on you and on your sons, and pour oil into all those containers; and set aside those which are full.”

5So she went from him, and shut the door on herself and on her sons. They brought the containers to her, and she poured oil.

6When the containers were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another container.” He said to her, “There isn’t another container.” Then the oil stopped flowing.

7Then she came and told the man of God. He said, “Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt; and you and your sons live on the rest.”
