1 Kings 13:26-33

26Now when the prophet who brought him back from the way heard it, he said, “It is the man of God, who 1disobeyed the 2command of the Lord; therefore the Lord has given him to the lion, which has torn him and killed him, according to the word of the Lord which He spoke to him.” 27Then he spoke to his sons, saying, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And they saddled it. 28He went and found his body thrown on the road with the donkey and the lion standing beside the body; the lion had not eaten the body nor torn the donkey. 29So the prophet took up the body of the man of God and laid it on the donkey and brought it back, and he came to the city of the old prophet to mourn and to bury him. 30He laid his body in his own grave, and they mourned over him, saying, “3Alas, my brother!” 31After he had buried him, he spoke to his sons, saying, “When I die, bury me in the grave in which the man of God is buried; 4lay my bones beside his bones. 325For the thing shall surely come to pass which he cried by the word of the Lord against the altar in Bethel and 6against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of 7Samaria.”

33After this event Jeroboam did not return from his evil way, but 8again he made priests of the high places from among 9all the people; 10any who would, he ordained, to be priests of the high places.
