Ahaziah falls through his roof, and sends messengers to ask the god Beelzebub if he will recover from the injury. Elijah is sent by an angel to intercept the messengers and to tell them that Ahaziah is doomed. Ahaziah twice sends men to Elijah, and the men are killed by divine fire. The third time, the leader begs Elijah to listen, and an angel tells Elijah to go with them. He tells Ahaziah that he will die, which comes true.
