Good News Translation

¹⁴ The two other officers and their men were killed by fire from heaven; but please be merciful to me!”

¹⁵ The angel of the Lord said to Elijah, “Go down with him, and don't be afraid.” So Elijah went with the officer to the king ¹⁶ and said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Because you sent messengers to consult Baalzebub, the god of Ekron—as if there were no god in Israel to consult—you will not get well; you will die!’”
