2 Kings 1:7-10 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

7. Ahaziah said to the messengers, “What did the man look like who met you and told you this?”

8. They answered Ahaziah, “This man was wearing a hairy coat with a leather belt around his waist.” Then Ahaziah said, “That was Elijah the Tishbite.”

9. Ahaziah sent a captain and 50 men to Elijah. The captain went to Elijah, who was sitting on top of a hill. The captain said to Elijah, “Man of God, the king says, ‘Come down!’”

10. Elijah answered the captain of 50, “If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and destroy you and your 50 men!” So fire came down from heaven and destroyed the captain and his 50 men.
