1 Kings 13:25-32
25And behold, men passed by and saw the body thrown on the road, and the lion standing beside the body; so they came and told about it in the city where 1the old prophet had lived.
26Now when the prophet who had brought him back from the way heard about it, he said, “It is the man of God, who 2disobeyed the 3command of the Lord; therefore the Lord has given him to the lion, which has torn him and killed him, in accordance with 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. 28Then he 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 4harmed the donkey. 29So the prophet picked 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, “5Oh, my brother!” 31And after he had buried him, he talked to his sons, saying, “When I die, bury me in the grave in which the man of God is buried; 6lay my bones beside his bones. 327For the thing will certainly come to pass which he cried out by the word of the Lord against the altar that is in Bethel, and 8against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of 9Samaria.”
