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.

And they said to him, On our way we had a meeting with a man who said, Go back to the king who sent you and say to him, The Lord says, Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? For this reason, you will not come down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.

Και ειπον προς αυτον, Ανθρωπος τις ανεβη εις συναντησιν ημων και ειπε προς ημας, Υπαγετε, επιστρεψατε προς τον βασιλεα, οστις σας απεστειλε, και ειπατε προς αυτον, ουτω λεγει Κυριος· Επειδη δεν ειναι Θεος εν τω Ισραηλ, δια τουτο στελλεις να ερωτησης τον Βεελ-ζεβουλ, τον θεον της Ακκαρων; δεν θελεις λοιπον καταβη απο της κλινης, εις την οποιαν ανεβης, αλλ' εξαπαντος θελεις αποθανει.

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 Baal–zebub the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
