2 Kings 6:3-10 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

3. Then the one said, “Please undertake to go with your servants.” And he answered, “I shall go.”

4. And he went with them, and they came to the Yardĕn, and they cut down trees.

5. And it came to be, as one was cutting down a tree, that the iron axe head fell into the water. And he cried out and said, “Oh my master, for it was borrowed!”

6. And the man of Elohim said, “Where did it fall?” And he showed him the place. And he cut off a stick, and threw it in there, and made the iron float.

7. And he said, “Pick it up.” And he reached out his hand and took it.

8. And the sovereign of Aram was fighting against Yisra’ĕl, and took counsel with his servants, saying, “My camp is in such and such a place.”

9. And the man of Elohim sent to the sovereign of Yisra’ĕl, saying, “Be on guard, do not pass this place, for the Arameans are coming down there.”

10. The sovereign of Yisra’ĕl then sent to the place of which the man of Elohim had spoken to him, and warned him, so that he was on his guard there, not once, and not twice.
