2 Kings 6:1-7 - Elisha Recovers A Lost Axe Head

¹ The sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too tight for us. ² Let us go, we pray thee, unto the Jordan, and each one take a beam from there, and let us make us a place there where we may dwell. And he answered, Go. ³ And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy slaves. And he answered, I will go. ⁴ So he went with them. And when they came to the Jordan, they cut down the wood. ⁵ But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water, and he cried and said, Alas, master! It was borrowed.

⁶ And the man of God said, Where did it fall? And he showed him the place. Then he cut down a stick and cast it in there and caused the iron to swim. ⁷ And he said unto him, Take it. And he put out his hand and took it.
