2 Kings 1:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 And he said unto them, What manner of man was he which came and met you, and told you these words?
8 And they said unto him, He was an [a]hairy man, and girded with a girdle of leather about his loins. Then said he, It is Elijah the Tishbite.
9 Therefore the King sent unto him a captain over fifty with his fifty men, who went up unto him: for behold, he sat on the top [b]of a mountain, and he said unto him, O man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down.
