2And Ahaziah fell down through a lattice in his cupper chamber that was in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, and said unto them, Go, inquire of dBaal-zebub the god of eEkron whether fI shall recover of this disease. 3But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah gthe Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say unto them, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that ye go to inquire of dBaal-zebub the god of eEkron? 4Now therefore thus saith the Lord, †Thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. And Elijah departed. 5And when the messengers turned back unto him, he said unto them, Why are ye now turned back? 6And they said unto him, There came a man up to meet us, and said unto us, Go, turn again unto the king that sent you, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that thou sendest to inquire of dBaal-zebub the god of eEkron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
