19. And the men of the city say unto Elisha, `Lo, we pray thee, the site of the city [is] good, as my lord seeth, and the waters [are] bad, and the earth sterile.'
20. And he saith, `Bring to me a new dish, and place there salt;' and they bring [it] unto him,
21. and he goeth out unto the source of the waters, and casteth there salt, and saith, `Thus said Jehovah, I have given healing to these waters; there is not thence any more death and sterility.'
22. And the waters are healed unto this day, according to the word of Elisha, that he spake.
