1And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell before thee is too strait for us.

2Let us go, we pray thee, unto the Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.

3And one said, Be pleased, I pray thee, to go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go.

4So he went with them. And when they came to the Jordan, they cut down wood.

5But as one was felling a beam, the axe-head fell into the water; and he cried, and said, Alas, my master! for it was borrowed.
