Ahaziah sends messengers to inquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron, and the LORD’s angel speaks to Elijah the Tishbite

아하시야가 에그론의 신 바알세붑에게 물으러 사자를 보내고 여호와의 사자가 디셉 사람 엘리야에게 말함

2 Kings 1:2–4: Ahaziah falls down through the lattice in his upper room that was in Samaria, and is sick. So he sends messengers, and says to them, “Go, inquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover from this sickness.” But the LORD’s angel says to Elijah the Tishbite, “Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and tell them, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel that you go to inquire of Baal Zebub, the god of Ekron? Now therefore the LORD says, “You will not come down from the bed where you have gone up, but you will surely die.”’” Then Elijah departs.
