8 Kwathi ngamhla uthile, uElisha wagqithela eShunem, apho kwaye kukho intokazi elinonokazi; yamzama ukuba adle isonka. Ubesithi, xa agqithayo, aphambukele khona ukuba adle isonka.
9 Yathi endodeni yayo, Ùyabona ke, ndiyaqonda ukuba lo mfo ùngcwele wakwaThixo úmana egqitha apha.
10 Masenze eludongeni igunjana eliphezulu, simbekele khona isingqengqelo, netafile, nesihlalo, nesibane, angene khona akuphambukela kuthi.
11 Kwathi ngamhla uthile waya khona, waphambukela egumbini elo liphezulu, walala khona.
12 Wathi kuGehazi umfana wakwakhe, Biza lo mShunemekazi.
13 Wambiza; wema phambi kwakhe. Wathi kuye, Khawuthi kuye, Uyabona, ùsinyamekele ngayo yonke le nyameko; unga ungenzelwa ntoni na ke? Unelizwi ongalenzelwayo na kukumkani, nokuba kukumthetheli-mkhosi? Wathi yena, Ndihleli phakathi kwabantu bakowethu.
14 Wathi, Makenzelwe ntoni na? Wathi uGehazi, Inyaniso, akananyana; indoda yakhe yaluphele.
