4 Kings 1:16

And said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast sent messengers to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron, as though there were not a God in Israel, of whom thou mightest inquire the word; therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die.

Vulgate (Clementine)
et locutus est ei : Hæc dicit Dominus : Quia misisti nuntios ad consulendum Beelzebub deum Accaron, quasi non esset Deus in Israël a quo posses interrogare sermonem, ideo de lectulo super quem ascendisti, non descendes, sed morte morieris.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ ἐλάλησεν πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλειού Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Τί ὅτι ἀπέστειλας ζητῆσαι ἐν τῇ Βάαλ μυῖαν θεὸν Ἀκκαρών; οὐχ οὕτως· ἡ κλίνη ἐφ᾽ ἧς ἀνέβης ἐκεῖ οὐ καταβήσῃ ἀπ᾽ αὐτῆς, ὅτι θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ.
