²⁹ Then Elisha said to Gehazi, "Get ready to travel ; take my staff and go! Don't talk to anyone along the way. Go quickly and lay the staff on the child's face."

²⁹ He said to Gehazi, "Tie up your garment and take my staff in your hand and go. If you meet anyone, do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not reply. And lay my staff on the face of the child."

²⁹ He ordered Gehazi, "Don't lose a minute - grab my staff and run as fast as you can. If you meet anyone, don't even take time to greet him, and if anyone greets you, don't even answer. Lay my staff across the boy's face."
