God’s Word Translation
2 Kings 2:18-22
18They returned to Elisha in Jericho, where he was waiting. He said, “Didn’t I tell you not to go?”
19The people of the city ⌞of Jericho⌟ told Elisha, “This city’s location is as good as you will ever find. But the water is bad, and the land cannot grow crops.”
20Elisha said, “Bring me a new jar, and put salt in it.” They brought it to him.
21He went to the spring and threw the salt into it. Then he said, “This is what the Lord says: I have purified this water. No more deaths or crop failures will come from this water.”
22To this day the water is still pure, as Elisha had said.
