2 Kings 1:15-17
Legacy Standard Bible
15 (A)Then the angel of Yahweh spoke to Elijah, “Go down with him; (B)do not be afraid of him.” So he arose and went down with him to the king. 16 Then he spoke to him, “Thus says Yahweh, ‘Because you have sent messengers (C)to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron—is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word?—therefore [a]you shall not come down from the bed where you have gone up, but shall surely die.’”

17 So Ahaziah died according to the word of Yahweh which Elijah had spoken. And because he had no son, Jehoram became king in his place (D)in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah.
