2 Kings 2:17-19

American Standard Version

¹⁷ And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not. ¹⁸ And they came back to him, while he tarried at Jericho; and he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Go not?

¹⁹ And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, we pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water is bad, and the land ^[a]miscarrieth.
