1The sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “See now, the place where we dwell before you is too small for us.

2Please let us go to the Jordan, and every man take a beam from there, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell.” He answered, “Go!”

3One said, “Please be pleased to go with your servants.” He answered, “I will go.”

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

5But as one was felling a beam, the ax head fell into the water. Then he cried, and said, “Alas, my master! For it was borrowed.”
