2 Kings 1:8


2 Kings 1:7 2 Kings 1:8 (KJV) 2 Kings 1:9
And he said unto them, What manner of man [was he] which came up to meet you, and told you these words?
And they answered him, [He was] an hairy man, and girt with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said, It [is] Elijah the Tishbite.
Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down.
