2 Kings 1:14-16
Legacy Standard Bible
14 Behold, fire came down from heaven and consumed the first two commanders of fifty with their fifties; but now let my [a]life be precious in your sight.” 15 (A)Then the angel of Yahweh spoke to Elijah, “Go down with him; (B)do not be afraid of him.” So he arose and went down with him to the king. 16 Then he spoke to him, “Thus says Yahweh, ‘Because you have sent messengers (C)to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron—is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word?—therefore [b]you shall not come down from the bed where you have gone up, but shall surely die.’”
