Then he got up again and walked once back and forth in the house, and went up and stretched himself upon him. The child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
2 Kings 4:35

I have heard that the "seven times" could refer to the entire process of Elisha lying on the child and then the child sneezing rather than just to the sneezing as most translations read. This possibility is made more apparent by the literal wording in the YLT:
"...and he turneth back and walketh in the house, once hither and once thither, and goeth up and stretcheth himself upon him, and the youth sneezeth till seven times, and the youth openeth his eyes."

It seems that Elisha performed this ritual twice and then the boy sneezed seven times or else he performed the ritual seven times and the boy sneezed each time before finally opening his eyes.
