2 Re 1:6-8
Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
6 Gli dissero: «Ci è venuto incontro un uomo, che ci ha detto: Su, tornate dal re che vi ha inviati e ditegli: Così dice il Signore: Non c'è forse un Dio in Israele, perché tu mandi a interrogare Baal-Zebub, dio di Ekròn? Pertanto, dal letto, in cui sei salito, non scenderai, ma di certo morirai». 7 Domandò loro: «Com'era l'uomo che vi è venuto incontro e vi ha detto simili parole?». 8 Risposero: «Era un uomo peloso; una cintura di cuoio gli cingeva i fianchi». Egli disse: «Quello è Elia il Tisbita!».

2 Kings 1:6-8
New International Version
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(A) 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](B) and had a leather belt around his waist.”
The king said, “That was Elijah the Tishbite.”
