2 Kings 1:2–6

²During the rebellion King Ahaziah fell through a window lattice in his upstairs room in Samaria and injured himself. So he sent messengers ⸤to Ekron⸥. He had told them, “Go ask Baalzebub, the god of Ekron, if I will recover from this injury.” 

³Then the angel of the Lord said to Elijah from Tishbe, “Meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and ask them, ‘Do you seek advice from Baalzebub, the god of Ekron, because ⸤you think⸥ there is no God in Israel? ⁴This is what the Lord says: You will not get up from the bed you are lying on. Instead, you will die there.’ ” Then Elijah left. 

⁵When the messengers returned, the king asked them, “Why have you come back so soon?” 

⁶They told him that a man came to meet them and said to them, “Go back to the king who sent you. Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord says: Do you send messengers to seek advice from Baalzebub, the god of Ekron, because ⸤you think⸥ there is no God in Israel? You will not get up from the bed you are lying on. Instead, you will die there.’ ”
