2 Reis 6

1 And sons of the prophet say to Elisha, "Now behold, the place where we are dwelling before you is too narrow for us; 2 please let us go to the Jordan, and we each take one beam from there, and we make a place there for ourselves to dwell there"; and he says, "Go." 3 And the one says, "Please be willing, and go with your servants"; and he says, "I go." 4 And he goes with them, and they come to the Jordan, and cut down the trees, 5 and it comes to pass, the one is felling the beam, and the iron [ax head] has fallen into the water, and he cries and says, "Aah! My lord, for it was borrowed!" 6 And the man of God says, "To where has it fallen?" And he shows him the place, and he cuts a stick, and casts [it] there, and causes the iron to swim, 7 and says, "Raise [it] up for yourself"; and he puts forth his hand and takes it.
