Chapter 2

19Then the men of the city said to Elisha, 'Behold now, the site of the city is pleasant, as my lord sees; but the water is bad and the land is unfruitful.' 20And he said, 'Bring me a new jar, and put salt in it.' So they brought it to him. 21Then he went out to the spring of water and threw salt in it and said, 'This is what the Lord says: ‘I have purified these waters; there shall not come from there death or unfruitfulness any longer.’?' 22So the waters have been purified to this day, in accordance with the word of Elisha which he spoke.

Chapter 2

19And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water is naught, and the ground barren. 20And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him. 21And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the Lord, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land. 22So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake.

After they had brought him one, 21Elisha went out to the spring, threw salt in it, and said, "This is what the Lord says: ‘I have healed this water. No longer will death or unfruitfulness result from it.’" 22Therefore, the water still remains healthy today according to the word that Elisha spoke.

20Elisha said, 'Bring me a new bowl with salt in it.' So they brought it to him. 21Then he went out to the spring that supplied the town with water and threw the salt into it. And he said, 'This is what the Lord says: I have purified this water. It will no longer cause death or infertility. ' 22And the water has remained pure ever since, just as Elisha said.
