And it came to pass on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a wealthy woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.

And they constrained him, saying, Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is declining. And he entered in to stay with them.
