13 The king sent a third commander of fifty, with his fifty men. The third commander of fifty climbed up, approached Eliyahu and fell on his knees before him. He pleaded with him: “Man of God, please! Have some regard for my life and the lives of these fifty servants of yours!

14 I know that fire came down from heaven and burned up the two other commanders with their fifty men; but now, have some regard for my life.”

15 The angel of ADONAI said to Eliyahu, “Go down with him; don’t be afraid of him.” So he got up and went down with him to the king.
