2 Kings 6:1-7
1
An Axhead Floats
The company of the prophets said to Elisha, “Look, the place where we meet with you is too small for us.
2
Let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a pole; and let us build a place there for us to live.”
And he said, “Go.”
3
Then one of them said, “Won’t you please come with your servants?”
“I will,” Elisha replied.
4
And he went with them.
They went to the Jordan and began to cut down trees.
5 As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water. “Oh, my lord,” he cried out, “it was borrowed!”
6 The man of God asked, “Where did it fall?” When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float.
7 “Lift it out,” he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it.
