1 And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “Behold now, the place where we are dwelling there to your face is too tight for us. 2 Let us go, please, to the Jordan, and let take from there each man one beam, and let us make to us there a place where we may dwell there.” And he answered, “Go.” 3 And the one said, “Be resolved, please, and go with your servants.” And he answered, “I will go.” 4 And he went with them, and they came to the Jordan, and they cut down the trees. 5 And it came to pass, the one was cutting down a tree and the iron fell into the water. And he cried out and said, “Alas, master! And it was borrowed.” 6 And the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” And he showed him the place, and he cut off a stick and threw it in there; and the iron he made float. 7 And he said, “Pick it up for yourself.” And he stretched out his hand, and he took it. 2 Kings 6:1-7, Berean Literal Bible.
