* And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha , Behold now , the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us . * Let us go , we pray thee , unto Jordan , and take thence every man a beam , and let us make us a place there , where we may dwell . And he answered , Go ye . * And one said , Be content , I pray thee , and go with thy servants . And he answered , I will go . * So he went with them . And when they came to Jordan , they cut down wood . * But as one was felling a beam , the axe head fell into the water : and he cried , and said , Alas , master ! for it was borrowed . * And the man of God said , Where fell it ? And he shewed him the place . And he cut down a stick , and cast it in thither ; and the iron did swim . * Therefore said he , Take it up to thee . And he put out his hand , and took it .
