The king answered the man of God, Entreat now the favor of the LORD your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again. The man of God entreated the LORD, and the king's hand was restored him again, and became as it was before.
When he had looked around at them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their hearts, he said to the man, *Stretch out your hand.* He stretched it out, and his hand was restored as healthy as the other.
