2 Kings 2:18-22

18And when they came back to him, for he had stayed in Jericho, he said to them, “Did I not say to you, ‘Do not go’?”

19Then the men of the city said to Elisha, “Please notice, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the ground barren.”

20And he said, “Bring me a new bowl, and put salt in it.” So they brought it to him.

21Then he went out to the source of the water, and cast in the salt there, and said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘I have healed this water; from it there shall be no more death or barrenness.’ ”

22So the water remains healed to this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke.
