2 Kings 1:10–14

¹⁰And Elijah answereth and speaketh unto the head of the fifty, ‘And if I am a man of God, fire doth come down from the heavens, and consume thee and thy fifty;’ and fire cometh down from the heavens, and consumeth him and his fifty. ¹¹And he turneth and sendeth unto him another head of fifty and his fifty, and he answereth and speaketh unto him, ‘O man of God, thus said the king, Haste, come down.’ ¹²And Elijah answereth and speaketh unto them, ‘If I am a man of God, fire doth come down from the heavens, and consume thee and thy fifty;’ and fire of God cometh down from the heavens, and consumeth him and his fifty. ¹³And he turneth and sendeth a third head of fifty and his fifty, and the third head of fifty goeth up, and cometh in, and boweth on his knees over-against Elijah, and maketh supplication unto him, and speaketh unto him, ‘O man of God, let be precious, I pray thee, my soul and the soul of thy servants—these fifty—in thine eyes. ¹⁴Lo, come down hath fire from the heavens, and consumeth the two heads of the former fifties and their fifties; and, now, let my soul be precious in thine eyes.’
