4 Now there was a certain woman of the wives of the sons+ of the prophets that cried out to E·liʹsha, saying: “Your servant, my husband, is dead; and you yourself well know that your own servant had continually feared+ Jehovah, and the creditor+ himself has come to take both my children for his slaves.”

4 And there were those who were saying: “We have borrowed money for the king’s tribute+ on our fields and our vineyards.+

25 But because he did not have the means to pay [it] back, his master ordered him and his wife and his children and all the things he had to be sold and payment to be made.+
