New Century Version

2 Kings 1:12-15 New Century Version (NCV)

12. Elijah answered, “If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and burn up you and your fifty men!” Then fire came down from heaven and burned up the captain and his fifty men.

13. Ahaziah then sent a third captain with his fifty men. The third captain came and fell down on his knees before Elijah and begged, “Man of God, please respect my life and the lives of your fifty servants.

14. See, fire came down from heaven and burned up the first two captains of fifty with all their men. But now, respect my life.”

15. The Lord’s angel said to Elijah, “Go down with him and don’t be afraid of him.” So Elijah got up and went down with him to see the king.
