2 Kings 2:21 CPDV

¹⁹  Also, the men of the city said to Elisha: 'Behold, this city is a very good habitation, as you yourself perceive, O lord. But the waters are very bad, and the ground is barren.'

²⁰  And so he said, 'Bring a new vessel to me, and place salt in it.' And when they had brought it,

²¹  he went out to the source of the waters, and he cast the salt into it. And he said: 'Thus says the Lord: I have healed these waters, and no longer shall there be death or barrenness in them.'

²²  Then the waters were healed, even to this day, in accord with the word of Elisha, which he spoke.

²³  Then he went up from there into Bethel. And as he was ascending along the way, little boys departed from the city. And they were mocking him, saying: 'Go up, bald head! Go up, bald head!'
