2 Kings 4:29

Expanded Bible

²⁹ Then Elisha said to Gehazi, “·Get ready [Tuck in your cloak; ^LGird up your loins; ^Cpulling up the back of the cloak between the legs and tucking it in the belt allowed freer movement]. Take my ·walking stick [staff] in your hand and go quickly. If you meet anyone, don’t ·say hello [greet him]. If anyone greets you, don’t ·respond [answer]. Lay my ·walking stick [staff] on the boy’s face.”
