1 Kings 13:23-30

23It cameH1961 about afterH310 he had eatenH398 breadH3899 and afterH310 he had drunkH8354, that he saddledH2280 the donkeyH2543 for him, for the prophetH5030 whomH834 he had broughtH7725 backH7725. 24Now when he had goneH1980, 1a lionH743 metH4672 him on the wayH1870 and killedH4191 him, and his bodyH5038 was thrownH7993 on the roadH1870, with the donkeyH2543 standingH5975 besideH681 it; the lionH743 also was standingH5975 besideH681 the bodyH5038. 25And beholdH2009, menH376 passedH5674 by and sawH7200 the bodyH5038 thrownH7993 on the roadH1870, and the lionH743 standingH5975 besideH681 the bodyH5038; so they cameH935 and toldH1696 it in the cityH5892 whereH834 2the oldH2205 prophetH5030 livedH3427.

26Now when the prophetH5030 whoH834 broughtH7725 him backH7725 from the wayH1870 heardH8085 it, he saidH559, “It is the manH376 of GodH430, whoH834 3disobeyedH4784 the 4commandH6310 of the LordH3068; therefore the LordH3068 has givenH5414 him to the lionH743, which has tornH7665 him and killedH4191 him, according to the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 whichH834 He spokeH1696 to him.” 27Then he spokeH1696 to his sonsH1121, sayingH559, “SaddleH2280 the donkeyH2543 for me.” And they saddledH2280 it. 28He wentH1980 and foundH4672 his bodyH5038 thrownH7993 on the roadH1870 with the donkeyH2543 and the lionH743 standingH5975 besideH681 the bodyH5038; the lionH743 had not eatenH398 the bodyH5038 norH3808 tornH7665 the donkeyH2543. 29So the prophetH5030 tookH5375 up the bodyH5038 of the manH376 of GodH430 and laidH5117 it on the donkeyH2543 and broughtH7725 it backH7725, and he cameH935 to the cityH5892 of the oldH2205 prophetH5030 to mournH5594 and to buryH6912 him. 30He laidH5117 his bodyH5038 in his own graveH6913, and they mournedH5594 overH5921 him, saying, “5AlasH1945, my brotherH251!”
