2 Kings 6:1-7
6:1 One day the guild of prophets came to Elisha and said, "You can see that this place where we're living under your leadership is getting cramped — we have no elbow room. 2 Give us permission to go down to the Jordan where each of us will get a log. We'll build a roomier place."
Elisha said, "Go ahead."
3 One of them then said, "Please! Come along with us!"
He said, "Certainly."
4 He went with them. They came to the Jordan and started chopping down trees. 5 As one of them was felling a timber, his axhead flew off and sank in the river.
"Oh no, master!" he cried out. "And it was borrowed!"
6 The Holy Man said, "Where did it sink?"
The man showed him the place.
He cut off a branch and tossed it at the spot. The axhead floated up.
7 "Grab it," he said. The man reached out and took it.
