2 Kings 1:7-9

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁷ The king asked them, “What was the man who told you this like?”

⁸ They replied, “He was hairy and had a leather belt around his waist.”

“That’s Elijah from Tishbe,” the king answered.

⁹ The king sent an army officer with 50 men to Elijah. When the officer found Elijah sitting on top of a hill, he told Elijah, “Man of God, the king says, ‘Come down.’ ”
