1 Kings 13:23-30
23AndH1961 afterH310 the man of God had finished eatingH398 andH310 drinkingH8354, the old prophetH5030 whoH834 had brought him backH7725 saddledH2280 the donkeyH2543 for him. 24As he went on his wayH1980, a lionH738 met himH4672 on the roadH1870 and killed himH4191, and his bodyH5038 wasH1961 left lyingH7993 in the roadH1870, with the donkeyH2543 and the lionH738 standingH5975 besideH681 it.
25And there wereH2009 menH582 passing byH5674 who sawH7200 the bodyH5038 lyingH7993 in the roadH1870 withH853 the lionH738 standingH5975 besideH681 itH5038, and they wentH935 and reported thisH1696 in the cityH5892 whereH834 the oldH2205 prophetH5030 livedH3427.
26When the prophetH5030 whoH834 had brought him backH7725 fromH4480 his journeyH1870 heard thisH8085, he saidH559, “ItH1931 is the manH376 of GodH430 whoH834 disobeyedH4784 the commandH6310 of the LORDH3068. Therefore the LORDH3068 has delivered himH5414 to the lionH738, and it has mauled himH7665 and killed himH4191, according to the wordH1697 that the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696 to him.”
27Then the old prophet instructedH1696H413 his sonsH1121H559, “SaddleH2280 the donkeyH2543 for me.” So they saddledH2280 it, 28and he wentH1980 and foundH4672 the bodyH5038 lyingH7993 in the roadH1870, with the donkeyH2543 and the lionH738 standingH5975 besideH681 it. The lionH738 had notH3808 eatenH398 the bodyH5038H3808 or mauledH7665 the donkeyH2543. 29So the old prophetH5030 lifted upH5375 the bodyH5038 of the manH376 of GodH430, laidH5117 it onH413 the donkeyH2543, and brought it backH7725 to his ownH2205 cityH5892 to mourn for himH5594 and bury himH6912. 30Then he laidH5117 the bodyH5038 in his own tombH6913, and they lamentedH5594 over himH5921, “OhH1945, my brotherH251!”
