2 Kings 6:1-7

1And the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 saidH559 unto ElishaH477, Behold now, the placeH4725 whereH834 we dwellH3427 before thee is too strait for us. 2Let us go, we pray thee, unto the JordanH3383, and takeH3947 thence every manH376 a beamH6982, and let us makeH6213 us a placeH4725 there, where we may dwellH3427. And he answered, Go ye. 3And oneH259 saidH559, Be pleased, I pray thee, to go with thy servantsH5650. And he answered, I will go. 4So he wentH935 with them. And when they cameH935 to the JordanH3383, they cutH1504 down woodH6086. 5But as oneH259 wasH1961 fellingH5307 a beamH6982, the axe-head fellH5307 into the waterH4325; and he criedH6817, and saidH559, AlasH162, my masterH113! for it wasH1961 borrowed. 6And the manH376 of GodH430 saidH559, Where fellH5307 it? And he showedH7200 him the placeH4725. And he cut down a stick, and castH7993 it in thither, and made the ironH1270 to swim. 7And he saidH559, TakeH3947 it up to thee. So he put out his handH3027, and tookH3947 it.
