1 The disciples of the prophets said to Elisha, “The place where we’re staying is too small for us.
2 Let’s go to the Jordan River. Each of us can get some logs and make a place for us to live there.”Elisha said, “Go ahead.”
3 Then one of the disciples asked, “Won’t you please come with us?”Elisha answered, “I’ll go.”
4 So he went with them. They came to the Jordan River and began to cut down trees.
5 As one of them was cutting down a tree, the ax head fell into the water. He cried out, “Oh no, master! It was borrowed!”
6 The man of God asked, “Where did it fall?” When he showed Elisha the place, Elisha cut off a piece of wood. He threw it into the water at that place and made the ax head float.
