Si Elias at si Haring Ahazias ng Israel
1 Nang mamatay si Ahab, naghimagsik ang Moab laban sa Israel. 2 Si Ahazias ay nahulog noon mula sa balkonahe sa bubungan ng palasyo niya sa Samaria at naging malubha ang kalagayan. Kaya nagpadala siya ng mga sugo sa Ekron upang isangguni sa diyos ng mga Filisteo na si Baalzebub kung gagaling pa siya o hindi.
3 Ngunit sinabi ng anghel ni Yahweh kay Elias na taga-Tisbe, “Salubungin mo ang mga sugo ng hari ng Samaria at itanong mo kung wala nang Diyos ang Israel at kay Baalzebub na diyos ng Ekron na siya sasangguni. 4 Sabihin mong hindi na siya gagaling sa kanyang sakit. Iyon na ang ikamamatay niya.” At lumakad nga si Elias.
5 Nang magbalik ang mga inutusan ng hari, sila'y tinanong nito, “Bakit kayo bumalik?”
6 Sinabi nila, “May nasalubong po kaming tao. Pinabalik niya kami at ipinapatanong sa inyo kung wala nang Diyos ang Israel kaya kay Baalzebub na diyos ng Ekron na kayo sasangguni? Hindi na raw kayo gagaling. Mamamatay na raw kayo sa sakit ninyong iyan.”
7 “Ano ang hitsura ng taong nagsabi nito sa inyo?” tanong ng hari.
8 “Mabalahibo(A) po ang kanyang kasuotan at nakasinturon ng balat,” sagot nila.
“Si Elias iyon na taga-Tisbe,” sabi ng hari.
9 Ipinatawag ni Haring Ahazias ang isa niyang opisyal at ang limampung kawal nito upang dakpin si Elias. Natagpuan siya ng opisyal na nakaupo sa burol at sinabi nito, “Lingkod ng Diyos, ipinapatawag kayo ng hari.”
10 Sumagot(B) si Elias, “Kung ako nga'y lingkod ng Diyos, umulan sana ng apoy at sunugin ka, pati ang iyong limampung kawal.” Umulan nga ng apoy at nasunog ang opisyal at ang mga kawal nito.
11 Nagsugo muli si Haring Ahazias ng ibang opisyal na may kasama ring limampung kawal. Ipinasabi niya kay Elias, “Lingkod ng Diyos, magmadali kayo, ipinapatawag kayo ng hari.”
12 Ngunit sinabi ni Elias, “Kung ako nga'y lingkod ng Diyos, umulan sana ng apoy at sunugin ka, pati iyong limampung kawal.” Ang Diyos ay nagpaulan uli ng apoy at sinunog ang opisyal at ang mga kawal nito.
13 Si Haring Ahazias ay nagpatawag uli ng isa pang opisyal at inutusan, kasama ng limampung kawal nito. Pagdating sa burol, lumuhod ang opisyal sa paanan ni Elias at nagsumamo, “Lingkod ng Diyos, maawa po kayo sa akin at sa aking limampung tauhan. Kami po ay inyong lingkod. Huwag po ninyong itulot na mamatay kami. 14 Alam ko pong tinupok ng apoy mula sa langit ang dalawang opisyal na nauna sa akin at ang kanilang mga kawal. Kaya nga po isinasamo ko sa inyo na hayaan ninyo kaming mabuhay.”
15 Sinabi ng anghel ni Yahweh kay Elias, “Sumama ka sa kanya at huwag kang matakot.” Sumama nga siya papunta sa hari. 16 Pagdating sa palasyo sinabi niya sa hari, “Ganito ang ipinapasabi ni Yahweh: ‘Sapagkat nagsugo ka ng mga tao upang sumangguni kay Baalzebub na diyos ng Ekron na para bang wala nang Diyos sa Israel, hindi ka na gagaling. Mamamatay ka.’”
17 Namatay nga si Haring Ahazias ayon sa ipinasabi ni Yahweh kay Elias. Wala siyang anak kaya si Joram[a] na kanyang kapatid[b] ang humalili sa kanya bilang hari ng Israel. Noon naman ay dalawang taon nang hari sa Juda si Jehoram na anak ni Jehoshafat.
18 Ang iba pang ginawa ni Haring Ahazias ay nakasulat sa Kasaysayan ng mga Hari ng Israel.

The Lord’s Judgment on Ahaziah
1 After Ahab’s death, Moab(A) rebelled against Israel. 2 Now Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria and injured himself. So he sent messengers,(B) saying to them, “Go and consult Baal-Zebub,(C) the god of Ekron,(D) to see if I will recover(E) from this injury.”
3 But the angel(F) of the Lord said to Elijah(G) the Tishbite, “Go up and meet the messengers of the king of Samaria and ask them, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel(H) that you are going off to consult Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?’ 4 Therefore this is what the Lord says: ‘You will not leave(I) the bed you are lying on. You will certainly die!’” So Elijah went.
5 When the messengers returned to the king, he asked them, “Why have you come back?”
6 “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 messengers to consult Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not leave(J) the bed you are lying on. You will certainly die!”’”
7 The king asked them, “What kind of man was it who came to meet you and told you this?”
8 They replied, “He had a garment of hair[a](K) and had a leather belt around his waist.”
The king said, “That was Elijah the Tishbite.”
9 Then he sent(L) to Elijah a captain(M) 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!’”
10 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(N) fell from heaven and consumed the captain and his men.
11 At this the king sent to Elijah another captain with his fifty men. The captain said to him, “Man of God, this is what the king says, ‘Come down at once!’”
12 “If I am a man of God,” Elijah replied, “may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men!” Then the fire of God fell from heaven and consumed him and his fifty men.
13 So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. This third captain went up and fell on his knees before Elijah. “Man of God,” he begged, “please have respect for my life(O) and the lives of these fifty men, your servants! 14 See, fire has fallen from heaven and consumed the first two captains and all their men. But now have respect for my life!”
15 The angel(P) of the Lord said to Elijah, “Go down with him; do not be afraid(Q) of him.” So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
16 He told the king, “This is what the Lord says: Is it because there is no God in Israel for you to consult that you have sent messengers(R) to consult Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron? Because you have done this, you will never leave(S) the bed you are lying on. You will certainly die!” 17 So he died,(T) according to the word of the Lord that Elijah had spoken.
Because Ahaziah had no son, Joram[b](U) succeeded him as king in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah. 18 As for all the other events of Ahaziah’s reign, and what he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel?
