Second Kings 1:14

Behold, fire has come down from heaven and consumed the two previous commanders over 50 and their 50, but now let my life be precious in your eyes."
[In the story of Elijah's condemnation of King Ahaziah, repetition is used as a literary device. The tension increases each time Ahaziah sends a military unit to Elijah, until the pattern of destruction by fire finally ceases.]
