1 Kings 13:1-5
1And, behold, there cameH935 a manH376 of GodH430 out of JudahH3063 by the wordH1697 of Jehovah unto Beth-el: and JeroboamH3379 was standingH5975 by the altarH4196 to burn incenseH6999.
2And he cried against the altarH4196 by the wordH1697 of Jehovah, and saidH559, O altarH4196, altarH4196, thusH3541 saith Jehovah: Behold, a sonH1121 shall be bornH3205 unto the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, JosiahH2977 by nameH8034; and upon thee shall he sacrificeH2076 the priestsH3548 of the highH1116 placesH1116 that burnH8313 incenseH6999 upon thee, and men’sH120 bonesH6106 shall they burnH8313 upon thee.
3And he gaveH5414 a signH4159 the same dayH3117, sayingH559, This is the signH4159 which Jehovah hath spokenH1696: Behold, the altarH4196 shall be rent, and the ashesH1880 that are upon it shall be pouredH8210 out.
4And it came to pass, when the kingH4428 heardH8085 the sayingH559 of the manH376 of GodH430, which he cried against the altarH4196 in Beth-el, that JeroboamH3379 put forthH7971 his handH3027 from the altarH4196, sayingH559, Lay hold on him. And his handH3027, which he put forthH7971 against him, driedH3001 up, so that he could not draw it backH7725 again to him.
5The altarH4196 also was rent, and the ashesH1880 pouredH8210 out from the altarH4196, according to the signH4159 which the manH376 of GodH430 had givenH5414 by the wordH1697 of Jehovah.
