(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_called to/towards Gēyḩₐzī and=he/it_said call to/towards the_Shunammite,[woman] (the),this and,he,summoned_her and,she_came to=him/it and=he/it_said pick_up son_of,your )
The pronoun he refers to Gehazi, while the pronoun him refers to Elisha. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [And Gehazi called her, and she came to Elisha]

This is an imperative, but it communicates permission rather than a command. Use a form in your language that communicates permission. Elisha is assuring the woman that her son is well enough for her to hold him in her arms. Alternate translation: [Your son is well enough for you to pick him up and hold him]
