V.1 Then Moab 4124 rebelled 6586-4 against Israel 3478 after 310 the death 4194 of Ahab. 256

1:2 And Ahaziah 274 fell down 5307-4 through a lattice 7639 in his upper chamber 5944 that [was] in Samaria, 8111 and was sick: 2470-4 and he sent 7971-4 messengers, 4397 and said 559-4 unto them, Go, 3212-3 enquire 1875-3 of Baalzebub 1176 the god 430 of Ekron 6138 whether I shall recover 2421-4 of this disease. 2483

1:3 But the angel 4397 of the LORD 3068 said 1696-14 to Elijah 452 the Tishbite, 8664 Arise, 6965-3 go up 5927-3 to meet 7125-2 the messengers 4397 of the king 4428 of Samaria, 8111 and say 1696-16 unto them, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God 430 in Israel, 3478 [that] ye go 1980-6 to enquire 1875-2 of Baalzebub 1176 the god 430 of Ekron? 6138

1:4 Now therefore thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 Thou shalt not come down 3381-4 from that bed 4296 on which thou art gone up, 5927-1 but shalt surely 4191-2 die. 4191-4 And Elijah 452 departed. 3212-4

1:5 And when the messengers 4397 turned back 7725-4 unto him, he said 559-4 unto them, Why are ye now 2088 turned back? 7725-1

1:6 And they said 559-4 unto him, There came a man 376 up 5927-1 to meet 7125-2 us, and said 559-4 unto us, Go, 3212-3 turn again 7725-3 unto the king 4428 that sent 7971-1 you, and say 1696-14 unto him, Thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 [Is it] not because [there is] not a God 430 in Israel, 3478 [that] thou sendest 7971-6 to enquire 1875-2 of Baalzebub 1176 the god 430 of Ekron? 6138 therefore thou shalt not come down 3381-4 from that bed 4296 on which thou art gone up, 5927-1 but shalt surely 4191-2 die. 4191-4

1:7 And he said 1696-17 unto them, What manner 4941 of man 376 [was he] which came up 5927-1 to meet 7125-2 you, and told 1696-17 you these words? 1697

1:8 And they answered 559-4 him, [He was] an hairy 8181 man, 1167 376 and girt 247-7 with a girdle 232 of leather 5785 about his loins. 4975 And he said, 559-4 It [is] Elijah 452 the Tishbite. 8664

1:9 Then the king sent 7971-4 unto him a captain 8269 of fifty 2572 with his fifty. 2572 And he went up 5927-4 to him: and, behold, he sat 3427-6 on the top 7218 of an hill. 2022 And he spake 1696-17 unto him, Thou man 376 of God, 430 the king 4428 hath said, 1696-14 Come down. 3381-3

1:10 And Elijah 452 answered 6030-4 and said 1696-17 to the captain 8269 of fifty, 2572 If I [be] a man 376 of God, 430 then let fire 784 come down 3381-4 from heaven, 8064 and consume 398-4 thee and thy fifty. 2572 And there came down 3381-4 fire 784 from heaven, 8064 and consumed 398-4 him and his fifty. 2572

1:11 Again 7725-4 also he sent 7971-4 unto him another 312 captain 8269 of fifty 2572 with his fifty. 2572 And he answered 6030-4 and said 1696-17 unto him, O man 376 of God, 430 thus hath the king 4428 said, 559-1 Come down 3381-3 quickly. 4120

1:12 And Elijah 452 answered 6030-4 and said 1696-17 unto them, If I [be] a man 376 of God, 430 let fire 784 come down 3381-4 from heaven, 8064 and consume 398-4 thee and thy fifty. 2572 And the fire 784 of God 430 came down 3381-4 from heaven, 8064 and consumed 398-4 him and his fifty. 2572

1:13 And he sent 7971-4 again 7725-4 a captain 8269 of the third 7992 fifty 2572 with his fifty. 2572 And the third 7992 captain 8269 of fifty 2572 went up, 5927-4 and came 935-4 and fell 3766-4 on his knees 1290 before 5048 Elijah, 452 and besought 2603-101 him, and said 1696-17 unto him, O man 376 of God, 430 I pray thee, let my life, 5315 and the life 5315 of these fifty 2572 thy servants, 5650 be precious 3365-4 in thy sight. 5869

1:14 Behold, there came fire 784 down 3381-1 from heaven, 8064 and burnt up 398-4 the two 8147 captains 8269 of the former 7223 fifties 2572 with their fifties: 2572 therefore let my life 5315 now be precious 3365-4 in thy sight. 5869

1:15 And the angel 4397 of the LORD 3068 said 1696-17 unto Elijah, 452 Go down 3381-3 with him: be not afraid 3372-4 of him. 6440 And he arose, 6965-4 and went down 3381-4 with him unto the king. 4428

1:16 And he said 1696-17 unto him, Thus saith 559-1 the LORD, 3068 Forasmuch as thou hast sent 7971-1 messengers 4397 to enquire 1875-2 of Baalzebub 1176 the god 430 of Ekron, 6138 [is it] not because [there is] no God 430 in Israel 3478 to enquire 1875-2 of his word? 1697 therefore thou shalt not come down 3381-4 off that bed 4296 on which thou art gone up, 5927-1 but shalt surely 4191-2 die. 4191-4

1:17 So he died 4191-4 according to the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 which Elijah 452 had spoken. 1696-14 And Jehoram 3088 reigned 4427-4 in his stead in the second 8147 year 8141 of Jehoram 3088 the son 1121 of Jehoshaphat 3092 king 4428 of Judah; 3063 because he had no son. 1121
