2 Kings4:26
26 Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? Is it well with thy husband? Is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well .
So it was in some respects, because it was the Will of a Wise and Good God, and therefore best for her. Or, it shall be well: though the Child be dead, I doubt not by Gods blessing upon thy endeavours it shall live again and do well. But she answers ambiguously, and briefly too, that she might sooner come to the Prophet, and more fully open her mind to him.
