1. And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell before thee is too strait for us.
2. Let us go, we pray thee, to the Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he said, Go.
3. And one said, Consent, I pray thee, to go with thy servants. And he said, I will go.
4. And he went with them. And they came to the Jordan and cut down the trees.
