1Now Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.
2Ahaziah fell through the lattice (grid) in his upper chamber which was in Samaria, and became sick . So he sent messengers, saying to them, "Go, inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, if I will recover from this sickness."
3But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, " Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them, 'Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?'
4Therefore this is what the LORD says: 'You will not leave the bed on which you lie, but you will certainly die.'" So Elijah departed.
5When the messengers returned to Ahaziah, he said to them, "Why have you returned ?"
6They replied, "A man came up to meet us and said to us, 'Go, return to the king who sent you and tell him, "Thus says the LORD: 'Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not leave the bed on which you lie, but you will certainly die.'"'"
7The king asked them, "What was the appearance of the man who came up to meet you and said these things to you?"
8They answered him, "He was a hairy man with a leather band bound around his loins." And Ahaziah said, "It is Elijah the Tishbite."
9Then the king sent to Elijah a captain of fifty with his fifty . And he went up to him, and behold, he was sitting on the top of a hill. And the captain said to him, "Man of God, the king says, 'Come down.'"
10Elijah replied to the captain of fifty, "So if I am a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty ." Then fire fell from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.
11So King Ahaziah again sent to him another captain of fifty with his fifty . And he said to him, "Man of God, thus says the king, 'Come down quickly.'"
12Elijah answered them, "If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty ." And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty.
13So Ahaziah again sent a captain of a third fifty with his fifty . And the third captain of fifty went up and came bowed down on his knees before Elijah, and begged him and said to him, "O man of God, please let my life and the lives of your servants, these fifty, be precious in your sight.
14Behold, fire came down from heaven and consumed the first two captains of fifty with their fifties; but now let my life be precious in your sight."
15The angel of the LORD said to Elijah, "Go down with him; do not be afraid of him." So he stood and went down with him to the king.
16Then Elijah said to Ahaziah, "Thus says the LORD: 'Since you have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, god of Ekron—is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word?—therefore you will not leave the bed on which you lie, but will certainly die.'"
17So Ahaziah died in accordance with the word of the LORD which Elijah had spoken. And because he had no son, Jehoram became king in his place in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah .
18Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah which he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
