1 Kings 13:23-32 - The Disobedient Man Of God Dies
23 After the meal he made the donkey ready for the prophet whom he had taken back. 24 He went on his way. A lion met him on the road and jumped him and killed him. His dead body was stretched in the road with the donkey by its side. The lion was by the body.
25 Some people who passed by saw the body stretched out in the road with the lion by its side. They brought the news to the town where the old prophet lived. 26 The old prophet heard about it and said: That is the prophet who disobeyed Jehovah's command! Jehovah sent the lion to attack and kill him, just as Jehovah said he would.
27 He said to his sons: Saddle my donkey for me. They did so. 28 He rode away to find the prophet's body lying on the road. The donkey and the lion were still standing by it. The lion had not eaten the body or attacked the donkey. 29 The old prophet picked up the body and brought it back to Bethel on the donkey. There he mourned over it and buried it. 30 He buried it in his own family grave. He and his sons mourned over it, saying: Oh my brother, my brother!
31 After the burial the prophet said to his sons: When I die, bury me in this grave and lay my body next to his. 32 The words that he spoke at Jehovah's command against the altar in Bethel and against all the places of worship in the towns of Samaria will surely come true.
