2 Kings 6:1-7
1Some of the prophets said to Elisha, “Look, the place where we meet with you is too cramped for us.
2Let’s go to the Jordan. Each of us will get a log from there and we will build a meeting place for ourselves there.” He said, “Go.”
3One of them said, “Please come along with your servants.” He replied, “All right, I’ll come.”
4So he went with them. When they arrived at the Jordan, they started cutting down trees.
5As one of them was felling a log, the ax head dropped into the water. He shouted, “Oh no, my master! It was borrowed!”
6The prophet asked, “Where did it drop in?” When he showed him the spot, Elisha cut off a branch, threw it in at that spot, and made the ax head float.
7He said, “Lift it out.” So he reached out his hand and grabbed it.
