Elisha Heals the Waters of Jericho
19 The men also of the city said to Eliseus: Behold the habitation of this city is very good, as thy self my lord perceivest: but the waters are very ill, and the ground barren.
20 But he said: Fetch me a new vessel, and put salt into it. Which when they had brought,
21 going out to the fountain of the waters, he cast salt into it, and said: Thus saith our Lord: I have amended these waters, and death shall no more be in them, nor barrenness.
22 The waters therefore were amended until this day, according to the word of Eliseus, which he spake.
