2 Kings 2:19-22

The Message

¹⁹ One day the men of the city said to Elisha, “You can see for yourself, master, how well our city is located. But the water is polluted and nothing grows.”

²⁰ He said, “Bring me a brand-new bowl and put some salt in it.” They brought it to him.

^21-22 He then went to the spring, sprinkled the salt into it, and proclaimed, “God’s word: I’ve healed this water. It will no longer kill you or poison your land.” And sure enough, the water was healed—and remains so to this day, just as Elisha said.
