2 Kings 2:17-19

The Message

¹⁷ But they pestered him until he caved in: “Go ahead then. Send them.”

So they sent the fifty men off. For three days they looked, searching high and low. Nothing.

¹⁸ Finally, they returned to Elisha in Jericho. He told them, “So there—didn’t I tell you?”

¹⁹ One day the men of the city said to Elisha, “You can see for yourself, master, how well our city is located. But the water is polluted and nothing grows.”
