And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Lo! we pray thee, the situation of the city, is good, as, my lord, seeth, - but, the waters, are bad, and, the land, apt to miscarry.

And he said - Bring me a new bowl, and put therein, salt. So they brought it unto him;

and he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast therein, saith, - and said - Thus, saith Yahweh, I have healed these waters; there shall come from thence, no longer, death or aptness to miscarry.

So the waters were healed, as they remain unto this day, - according to the word of Elisha which he spake.
