2
H274
And Ahaziah
H5307
fell
H1157
down through
H7639
a lattice
H5944
in his upper
H5944
chamber
H8111
that was in Samaria,
H2470
and was sick:
H7971
and he sent
H4397
messengers,
H559
and said
H3212
to them, Go,
H1875
inquire
H1176
of Baalzebub
H430
the god
H6138
of Ekron
H518
whether
H2421
I shall recover
H2088
of this
H2483
disease.
3
H4397
But the angel
H3068
of the LORD
H1696
said
H452
to Elijah
H8664
the Tishbite,
H6965
Arise,
H5927
go
H7125
up to meet
H4397
the messengers
H4428
of the king
H8111
of Samaria,
H1696
and say
H430
to them, Is it not because there is not a God
H3478
in Israel,
H1980
that you go
H1875
to inquire
H1176
of Baalzebub
H430
the god
H6138
of Ekron?
4
H3651
Now therefore
H3541
thus
H559
said
H3068
the LORD,
H3381
You shall not come
H3381
down
H4296
from that bed
H834
on which
H5927
you are gone
H3588
up, but shall surely
H4191
die.
H452
And Elijah
H3212
departed.
5
H4397
And when the messengers
H7725
turned
H7725
back
H559
to him, he said
H4100
to them, Why
H2088
are you now
H7725
turned
H7725
back?
6
H559
And they said
H5927
to him, There came
H376
a man
H7125
up to meet
H559
us, and said
H3212
to us, Go,
H7725
turn
H7725
again
H4428
to the king
H7971
that sent
H1696
you, and say
H3541
to him, Thus
H559
said
H3068
the LORD,
H430
Is it not because there is not a God
H3478
in Israel,
H7971
that you send
H1875
to inquire
H1176
of Baalzebub
H430
the god
H6138
of Ekron?
H3651
therefore
H3381
you shall not come
H3381
down
H4296
from that bed
H834
on which
H5927
you are gone
H3588
up, but shall surely
H4191
die.
7
H1696
And he said
H4100
to them, What
H4941
manner
H376
of man
H834
was he which
H5927
came
H7125
up to meet
H1696
you, and told
H428
you these
H1697
words?
8
H559
And they answered
H1167
him, He was an hairy
H8181
H376
man,
H247
and girt
H232
with a girdle
H5785
of leather
H4975
about his loins.
H559
And he said,
H452
It is Elijah
H8664
the Tishbite.
9
H4428
Then the king
H7971
sent
H8269
to him a captain
H2572
of fifty
H2572
with his fifty.
H5927
And he went
H2009
up to him: and, behold,
H3427
he sat
H5921
on
H7218
the top
H2022
of an hill.
H1696
And he spoke
H376
to him, You man
H430
of God,
H4428
the king
H1696
has said,
H3381
Come
H3381
down.
10
H452
And Elijah
H6030
answered
H1696
and said
H8269
to the captain
H2572
of fifty,
H518
If
H376
I be a man
H430
of God,
H784
then let fire
H3381
come
H3381
down
H8064
from heaven,
H398
and consume
H2572
you and your fifty.
H3381
And there came
H3381
down
H784
fire
H8064
from heaven,
H398
and consumed
H2572
him and his fifty.
11
H7725
Again
H7971
also he sent
H312
to him another
H8269
captain
H2572
of fifty
H2572
with his fifty.
H6030
And he answered
H1696
and said
H376
to him, O man
H430
of God,
H3541
thus
H4428
has the king
H559
said,
H3381
Come
H3381
down
H4120
quickly.
12
H452
And Elijah
H6030
answered
H1696
and said
H518
to them, If
H376
I be a man
H430
of God,
H784
let fire
H3381
come
H3381
down
H8064
from heaven,
H398
and consume
H2572
you and your fifty.
H784
And the fire
H430
of God
H3381
came
H3381
down
H8064
from heaven,
H398
and consumed
H2572
him and his fifty.
13
H7971
And he sent
H7725
again
H8269
a captain
H7992
of the third
H2572
fifty
H2572
with his fifty.
H7992
And the third
H8269
captain
H2572
of fifty
H5927
went
H935
up, and came
H3766
and fell
H5921
on
H1290
his knees
H5048
before
H452
Elijah,
H2603
and sought
H1696
him, and said
H376
to him, O man
H430
of God,
H4994
I pray
H5315
you, let my life,
H5315
and the life
H428
of these
H2572
fifty
H5650
your servants,
H3365
be precious
H5869
in your sight.
14
H2009
Behold,
H3381
there came
H784
fire
H3381
down
H8064
from heaven,
H398
and burnt
H8147
up the two
H8269
captains
H7223
of the former
H2572
fifties
H2572
with their fifties:
H5315
therefore let my life
H6258
now
H3365
be precious
H5869
in your sight.
15
H4397
And the angel
H3068
of the LORD
H1696
said
H452
to Elijah,
H3381
Go
H3381
down
H3372
with him: be not afraid
H6965
of him. And he arose,
H3381
and went
H3381
down
H4428
with him to the king.
16
H1696
And he said
H3541
to him, Thus
H559
said
H3068
the LORD,
H3282
For as much
H834
H7971
as you have sent
H4397
messengers
H1875
to inquire
H1176
of Baalzebub
H430
the god
H6138
of Ekron,
H369
is it not because there is no
H430
God
H3478
in Israel
H1875
to inquire
H1697
of his word?
H3381
therefore you shall not come
H3381
down
H4296
off that bed
H834
on which
H5927
you are gone
H3588
up, but shall surely
H4191
die.
17
H4191
So he died
H1697
according to the word
H3068
of the LORD
H834
which
H452
Elijah
H1696
had spoken.
H3088
And Jehoram
H4427
reigned
H8478
in his stead
H8147
in the second
H8141
year
H3088
of Jehoram
H1121
the son
H3092
of Jehoshaphat
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah;
H3588
because
H1961
he had
H3808
no
H1121
son.
