H274
Ahaziah
H5307
fell down
H7639
through the lattice
H5944
in his upper room
H8111
that was in Samaria,
H2470
and was sick.
H7971
So he sent
H4397
messengers,
H559
and said
H3212
to them, "Go,
H1875
inquire
H1176
of Baal Zebub,
H430
the god
H6138
of Ekron,
H2421
whether I will recover
H2483
of this sickness."
3
H4397
But the angel
H3068
of Yahweh
H1696
said
H452
to Elijah
H8664
the Tishbite,
H6965
"Arise,
H5927
go up
H7125
to meet
H4397
the messengers
H4428
of the king
H8111
of Samaria,
H1696
and tell
H430
them, ‘Is it because there is no God
H3478
in Israel,
H1980
that you go
H1875
to inquire
H1176
of Baal Zebub,
H1980
the god
H6138
of Ekron?
4
H559
Now therefore thus says
H3068
Yahweh,
H3381
"You shall not come down
H4296
from the bed
H5927
where you have gone up,
H4191
but shall surely
H4191
die."'"
H452
Elijah
H3212
departed.
5
H4397
The messengers
H7725
returned
H559
to him, and he said
H2088
to them, "Why is it that you have
H7725
returned?"
6
H559
They said
H376
to him, "A man
H5927
came
H5927
up
H7125
to meet
H559
us, and said
H3212
to us, ‘Go,
H7725
return
H4428
to the king
H7971
who sent
H1696
you, and tell
H1696
him, "Thus says
H3068
Yahweh,
H430
‘Is it because there is no God
H3478
in Israel,
H7971
that you send
H1875
to inquire
H1176
of Baal Zebub,
H430
the god
H6138
of Ekron?
H3381
Therefore you shall not come down
H4296
from the bed
H5927
where you have gone up,
H4191
but shall surely
H4191
die.'"'"
7
H1696
He said
H4941
to them, "What kind
H376
of man
H5927
was he who came up
H7125
to meet
H1696
you, and told
H1697
you these words?"
8
H559
They answered
H8181
him, "He was a hairy
H1167
man,
H247
and wearing
H5785
a leather
H232
belt
H4975
around his waist."
H559
He said,
H452
"It is Elijah
H8664
the Tishbite."
9
H4428
Then the king
H7971
sent
H8269
a captain
H2572
of fifty
H2572
with his fifty
H5927
to him. He went up
H3427
to him; and behold, he was sitting
H7218
on the top
H2022
of the hill.
H1696
He said
H376
to him, "Man
H430
of God,
H4428
the king
H1696
has said,
H3381
‘Come down!'"
10
H452
Elijah
H6030
answered
H1696
to
H8269
the captain
H2572
of fifty,
H376
"If I am a man
H430
of God,
H784
let fire
H3381
come down
H8064
from the sky,
H398
and consume
H2572
you and your fifty!"
H784
Fire
H3381
came down
H8064
from the sky,
H398
and consumed
H2572
him and his fifty.
11
H7725
Again
H7971
he sent
H312
to him another
H8269
captain
H2572
of fifty
H2572
and his fifty.
H6030
He answered
H1696
him,
H376
"Man
H430
of God,
H4428
the king
H6030
has said,
H3381
‘Come down
H4120
quickly!'"
12
H452
Elijah
H6030
answered
H1696
them,
H376
"If I am a man
H430
of God,
H784
let fire
H3381
come down
H8064
from the sky,
H398
and consume
H2572
you and your fifty!"
H784
The fire
H430
of God
H3381
came down
H8064
from the sky,
H398
and consumed
H2572
him and his fifty.
13
H7725
Again
H7971
he sent
H8269
the captain
H7992
of a third
H2572
fifty
H2572
with his fifty.
H7992
The third
H8269
captain
H2572
of fifty
H5927
went up,
H935
and came
H3766
and fell
H1290
on his knees
H5048
before
H452
Elijah,
H2603
and begged
H1696
him, and said
H376
to him, "Man
H430
of God,
H5315
please let my life,
H5315
and the life
H2572
of these fifty
H5650
your servants,
H3365
be precious
H5869
in your sight.
14
H784
Behold, fire
H3381
came
H3381
down
H8064
from the sky,
H398
and consumed
H8147
the two
H7223
former
H8269
captains
H2572
of fifty
H2572
with their fifties.
H5315
But now let my life
H3365
be precious
H5869
in your sight."
15
H4397
The angel
H3068
of Yahweh
H1696
said
H452
to Elijah,
H3381
"Go down
H3372
with him. Don't be afraid
H6440
of him."
H6965
He arose,
H3381
and went down
H4428
with him to the king.
16
H1696
He said
H1696
to him, "Thus says
H3068
Yahweh,
H7971
‘Because you have sent
H4397
messengers
H1875
to inquire
H1176
of Baal Zebub,
H430
the god
H6138
of Ekron,
H430
is it because there is no God
H3478
in Israel
H1875
to inquire
H1697
of his word?
H3381
Therefore you shall not come down
H4296
from the bed
H5927
where you have gone up,
H4191
but shall surely
H4191
die.'"
