- "A man came to meet us," they replied. "And he said to us, 'Go back to the king who sent you and tell him, "This is what the LORD says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending men to consult Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not leave the bed you are lying on. You will certainly die!" ' "
- The king asked them, "What kind of man was it who came to meet you and told you this?"
- They replied, "He was a man with a garment of hair and with a leather belt around his waist." The king said, "That was Elijah the Tishbite."
- Then he sent to Elijah a captain with his company of fifty men. The captain went up to Elijah, who was sitting on the top of a hill, and said to him, "Man of God, the king says, 'Come down!' "
- Elijah answered the captain, "If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men!" Then fire fell from heaven and consumed the captain and his men.

- 使者回答说,有一个人迎着我们来,对我们说,你们回去见差你们来的王,对他说,耶和华如此说,你差人去问以革伦神巴力西卜,岂因以色列中没有神麽。所以你必不下所上的床,必定要死。
- 王问他们说,迎着你们来告诉你们这话的,是怎样的人。
- 回答说,他身穿毛衣,腰束皮带。王说,这必是提斯比人以利亚。
- 于是,王差遣五十夫长,带领五十人去见以利亚,他就上到以利亚那里。以利亚正坐在山顶上。五十夫长对他说,神人哪,王吩咐你下来。
- 以利亚回答说,我若是神人,愿火从天上降下来,烧灭你和你那五十人。于是有火从天上降下来,烧灭五十夫长和他那五十人。
