2 Kings 6:1-7

Darby Translation

6 And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell before thee is too strait for us.

² Let us go, we pray thee, to the Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he said, Go.

³ And one said, Consent, I pray thee, to go with thy servants. And he said, I will go.

⁴ And he went with them. And they came to the Jordan and cut down the trees.

⁵ And it came to pass as one was felling a beam, that the iron fell into the water; and he cried and said, Alas, master, and it was borrowed!

⁶ And the man of God said, Where did it fall? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither, and made the iron to swim.

⁷ And he said, Take [it] up to thee. And he put out his hand and took it.
