Legacy Standard Bible

21 Then his servants said to him, “What is this thing that you have done? [a]While the child was alive, you fasted and wept; but when the child died, you arose and ate food.” 22 Then he said, “While the child was still alive, (C)I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘(D)Who knows, Yahweh may be gracious to me, that the child may live.’
