2 Kings 1:5-7

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁵ The messengers returned to the king, so he said to them, “Why have you come back?”

⁶ They told him, “A man came up to meet us and told us, ‘Go back to the king who sent you and tell him: This is what the Lord says. Is there no God in Israel, so that you are sending men to inquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore, you will not get up from the bed you have gotten into. You will surely die.’”

⁷ He said to them, “How would you describe the man who came up to meet you and said these words to you?”
