1 Kings 13:22-31

22but camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he said to thee, Eat no bread and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come to the sepulchre of thy fathers.

23And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled the ass for him, for the prophet that he had brought back;

24and he departed. And a lion met him by the way and slew him; and his corpse was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it; the lion also stood by the corpse.

25And behold, men passed by, and saw the corpse cast in the way and the lion standing by the corpse; and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.

26And the prophet that brought him back from the way heard [of it] and said, It is the man of 1God who was disobedient to the word of Jehovah; therefore Jehovah has delivered him to the lion, which has torn him and slain him, according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke to him.

27And he spoke to his sons saying, Saddle me the ass; and they saddled it.

28And he went and found his corpse cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the corpse: the lion had not eaten the corpse, nor torn the ass.

29And the prophet took up the corpse of the man of 2God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back; and the old prophet came into the city, to mourn and to bury him.

30And he laid his corpse in his own sepulchre; and they mourned over him [saying], Alas, my brother!

31And it came to pass after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons saying, When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre in which the man of 3God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones.
