19 And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, the seat of this city [is] good, as my lord sees, but the water [is] evil, and the ground barren.

20 Then he said, Bring me a new cruse and put salt in it. And they brought [it] to him.

21 And he went forth unto the springs of the waters and cast the salt in there and said, Thus hath the LORD said, I have healed these waters; there shall be no more death or barrenness in them.

22 So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the word which Elisha spoke.
