2 Kings 6:1-5 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

1. The sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too tight for us.

2. Let us go, we pray thee, unto the Jordan, and each one take a beam from there, and let us make us a place there where we may dwell. And he answered, Go.

3. And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy slaves. And he answered, I will go.

4. So he went with them. And when they came to the Jordan, they cut down the wood.

5. But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water, and he cried and said, Alas, master! It was borrowed.
