[18] And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho,) he said [19] 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. [20] And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him. [21] And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren [22] So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake.
