2 Kings 1:3-5

EasyEnglish Bible

³ Then the angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah.^[a] He was a prophet who came from Tishbe. The angel said, ‘Go and meet the men that the king of Samaria has sent. Say to them, “Do you think that there is no God in Israel? Is that why you are going to Ekron's god, Baal-Zebub, to ask if the king will be well again?” ⁴ Because you are doing this, the Lord says to you, Ahaziah, “You will never leave the bed that you are lying on. You will certainly die.” ’

⁵ Elijah went to tell the men the Lord's message. So the men returned to the king. He asked them, ‘Why have you returned already?’
