What does 2 Kings 1:4 mean?

One day, Ahaziah fell through the latticework in his upstairs room in Samaria and got badly hurt. He sent messengers, telling them, 'Go ask Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, if I'll recover from this injury.' 2 Kings 1:4 - Modern Text Bible

(Ahaziah's injury is serious, and instead of seeking God, he turns to a foreign idol for answers, showing his spiritual state.)
