19 And the men of the city said to Elisha, Look, we pray you, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees: but the water is bad, and the land miscarries.

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

21 And he went forth to the spring of the waters, and cast salt in it, and said, Thus says Yahweh, I have healed these waters; there will not be from there anymore death or miscarrying.

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