2 Kings 2:19-25 - Elisha Demonstrates His Authority
19 And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Lo! we pray thee, the situation of the city, is good, as, my lord, seeth, - but, the waters, are bad, and, the land, apt to miscarry.
20 And he said - Bring me a new bowl, and put therein, salt. So they brought it unto him; 21 and he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast therein, saith, - and said - Thus, saith Yahweh, I have healed these waters; there shall come from thence, no longer, death or aptness to miscarry. 22 So the waters were healed, as they remain unto this day, - according to the word of Elisha which he spake.
23 And he went up from thence, to Bethel, - and, as he was going up on the way, some lads, came forth, out of the city, and made mockery of him, and said to him, Go up, bald head! Go up, bald head! 24 And, when he turned round and saw them, he cursed them, in the name of Yahweh, - and there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tare, of them, forty-two youths. 25 And he went from thence, unto Mount Carmel, - and, from thence, he returned, to Samaria.
