2 Kings 1:13-16
13So the king 1again sent the captain of a third fifty with his fifty men. When the third captain of fifty went up, he came and bowed down on his knees before Elijah, and begged him and said to him, “You man of God, please let my life and the lives of these fifty servants of yours be precious in your sight. 14Behold, fire came down from heaven and consumed the first two captains of fifty with their fifties; but now let my 2life be precious in your sight.” 15And 3the angel of the Lord said to Elijah, “Go down with him; 4do not be afraid of him.” So he got up and went down with him to the king. 16Then he said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Since you have sent messengers 5to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron--is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word? Therefore 6you will not get down from the bed upon which you have lain, but you shall certainly die.’”
