2 Reyes 1:12-18

Listen to 2 Reyes 1:12-18
12 Y le respondi贸 El铆as, y dijo: Si yo soy var贸n de Dios, descienda fuego del cielo, y cons煤mate con tus cincuenta. Y descendi贸 fuego del cielo, que lo consumi贸 a 茅l y a sus cincuenta.
13 Y volvi贸 a enviar el tercer capit谩n de cincuenta con sus cincuenta; y subiendo aquel tercer capit谩n de cincuenta, se arrodill贸 delante de El铆as, y le rog贸, diciendo: Var贸n de Dios, te ruego que sea de valor delante de tus ojos mi vida y la vida de estos tus cincuenta siervos.
14 He aqu铆 ha descendido fuego del cielo, y ha consumido los dos primeros capitanes de cincuenta, con sus cincuenta; sea ahora mi alma de valor delante de tus ojos.
15 Entonces el 谩ngel del SE脩OR dijo a El铆as: Desciende con 茅l; no tengas miedo de 茅l. Y 茅l se levant贸, y descendi贸 con 茅l al rey.
16 Y le dijo: As铆 dijo el SE脩OR: Por cuanto enviaste mensajeros a consultar a Baal-zebub dios de Ecr贸n, 驴por ventura no hay Dios en Israel para consultar en su palabra? No descender谩s, por tanto, del lecho en que subiste, antes morir谩s de cierto.
17 Y muri贸 conforme a la palabra del SE脩OR que hab铆a hablado El铆as; y rein贸 en su lugar Joram (hijo de Acab ), en el segundo a帽o de Joram, hijo de Josafat rey de Jud谩; porque Ocoz铆as no ten铆a hijo.
18 Y lo dem谩s de los hechos de Ocoz铆as, 驴no est谩 todo escrito en el libro de las cr贸nicas de los reyes de Israel?

2 Reyes 1:12-18 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO THE SECOND BOOK OF KINGS

\\COMMONLY CALLED THE FOURTH BOOK OF THE KINGS\\

This, and the preceding book, are properly but one book divided into two parts, because of the size of it, as the book of Samuel; it is a continuation of the history of the kings of Israel and Judah; and for a further account of it the reader is referred to the title of the preceding book.

\\INTRODUCTION TO 2 KINGS 1\\

This chapter begins with the rebellion of Moab against Israel, 2Ki 1:1, relates a fall of the king of Israel in his house, which brought on him a sickness, about which he sent messengers to inquire of the god of Ekron, who were stopped by Elijah, and bid to return, as they did; and upon the king's examination of them about the cause of their return, he perceived it was Elijah that forbad them, 2Ki 1:2-8, upon which the king sent to him two captains, with fifty men each, one after another, to bring him to him, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them, 2Ki 1:9-12, but a third with fifty men sent to him were spared, and he is bid to go along with them with a message to the king, as he did, 2Ki 1:13-16 and the chapter is closed with the death of Ahaziah, 2Ki 1:17,18.
