²⁰ And he said, Bring ye to me a new vessel, and put ye salt into it. And when they had brought it to him,

²¹ he went out to the well of waters, and sent salt into it, and said, The Lord saith these things, I have healed these waters, and neither death, nor barrenness, shall be more in them. (he went to the well of water, or to the spring, and put the salt into it, and said, The Lord saith these things, I have healed this water, and no more shall there be death, or barrenness, in it.)

²² Therefore the waters were healed till into this day, by the word of Elisha, which he spake.
