2 Kings 1:6
And they said unto him, There came a man up to meet us, and said unto us, Go, turn again unto the king that sent you, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that thou sendest to enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
KJV
At illi responderunt ei : Vir occurrit nobis, et dixit ad nos : Ite, et revertimini ad regem qui misit vos, et dicetis ei : Hæc dicit Dominus : Numquid quia non erat Deus in Israël, mittis ut consulatur Beelzebub deus Accaron ? idcirco de lectulo, super quem ascendisti, non descendes, sed morte morieris.
Vulgate
καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς αὐτόν Ἀνὴρ ἀνέβη εἰς συνάντησιν ἡμῶν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς ἡμᾶς Δεῦτε ἐπιστράφητε πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα τὸν ἀποστείλαντα ὑμᾶς καὶ λαλήσατε πρὸς αὐτόν Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Εἰ παρὰ τὸ μὴ εἶναι θεὸν ἐν Ἰσραὴλ σὺ πορεύῃ ζητῆσαι ἐν τῇ Βάαλ μυῖαν θεὸν Ἀκκαρών; οὐχ οὕτως· ἡ κλίνη ἐφ’ ἧς ἀνέβης ὅτι οὐ καταβήσῃ ἀπ’ αὐτῆς, ὅτι θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ.
LXX
And they said unto him, There came up a man to meet us, and said unto us, Go, turn again unto the king that sent you, and say unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, Is it because there is no God in Israel, that thou sendest to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from the bed whither thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
