19 And the men of the city said unto Elisha: 'Behold, we pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth; but the water is bad, and the land miscarrieth.
20 And he said: 'Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein.' And they brought it to him.

22 So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke.
