2 Kings 6:1-7
1And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too small for us. 2Let us go, we pray thee, to Jordan, and take from there every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye. 3And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go. 4So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood. 5But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.1 6And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he showed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in there; and made the axe head float. 7Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.
