2 Kings 2:16-22
16and saidH559 to him, Behold now, there are with thy servantsH5650 fiftyH2572 valiant menH376; let them goH7971, we pray thee, and seekH1245 thy masterH113, lestH6435 perhaps the SpiritH7307 of Jehovah have takenH5375 him up, and castH7993 him upon some mountainH2022, or into some ravine. And he saidH559, Ye shall not sendH7971.
17And they pressed him till he was ashamedH954, and he saidH559, SendH7971. They sentH7971 therefore fiftyH2572 menH376, and they soughtH1245 threeH7969 daysH3117, but did not findH4672 him.
18And they came again to him (now he was staying at JerichoH3405); and he saidH559 to them, Did I not sayH559 to you, GoH7725 not?
19And the menH376 of the cityH5892 saidH559 to ElishaH477, Behold now, the situation of the cityH5892 is goodH2896, as my lordH113 seesH7200; but the waterH4325 is badH7451, and the landH776 is barren.
20And he saidH559, Bring me a newH2319 cruse, and putH7760 saltH4417 in it. And they brought it to him.
21And he wentH3318 forthH3318 to the source of the watersH4325, and castH7993 the saltH4417 in there, and saidH559, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: I have healedH7495 these watersH4325: there shall not beH1961 from thence any more deathH4194 or barrenness.
22And the watersH4325 were healedH7495 to this dayH3117, according to the saying of ElishaH477 which he spokeH1696.
