"And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth. And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth."

Så tog Elias drengen og bragte ham fra sengen på taget ned i huset og gav hans moder ham, idet han sagde: "Se, din søn lever!" Da sagde kvinden til Elias: "Nu ved jeg vist, at du er en Guds mand, og at Herrens ord i din mund er sandhed."
