1 Kings 13:1-5
1Now beholdH2009, 1a manH376 of GodH430 cameH935 from JudahH3063 to BethelH1008 by the wordH1697 of the LordH3068, while JeroboamH3379 was standingH5975 at the altarH4196 2to burnH6999 incenseH6999.
2And 3he criedH7121 outH7121 againstH5921 the altarH4196 by the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 and saidH559, “AltarH4196, altarH4196, thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: ‘BeholdH2009, a sonH1121 shall be bornH3205 to the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, 4JosiahH2977 by nameH8034; and on you he shall sacrificeH2076 the priestsH3548 of the highH1116 placesH1116 who burnH6999 incenseH6999 on you, and humanH120 bonesH6106 shall burnH8313 on you.’”
3Then he gaveH5414 a 5signH4159 on the sameH1931 dayH3117, sayingH559, “6ThisH2088 is the 7signH4159 whichH834 the LordH3068 has spokenH1696: ‘BeholdH2009, the altarH4196 shall be tornH7167 toH7167 piecesH7167 and the 8ashesH1880 whichH834 are on it shall be pouredH8210 outH8210.’”
4Now when the kingH4428 heardH8085 the statementH1697 of the manH376 of GodH430 whichH834 he criedH7121 outH7121 againstH5921 the altarH4196 in BethelH1008, JeroboamH3379 stretchedH7971 outH7971 his handH3027 from the altarH4196, sayingH559, “SeizeH8610 him!” But his handH3027 whichH834 he had stretchedH7971 outH7971 towardH5921 him driedH3001 upH3001, and he couldH3201 not drawH7725 it backH7725 to himself.
5The altarH4196 also was tornH7167 toH7167 piecesH7167 and the 9ashesH1880 were pouredH8210 outH8210 from the altarH4196, in accordance with the 10signH4159 whichH834 the manH376 of GodH430 had givenH5414 by the wordH1697 of the LordH3068.
