1 Kings 13:1-5

1And, behold, there cameH935 a manH376 of GodH430 out of JudahH3063 by the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 unto Beth–elH1008: and JeroboamH3379 stoodH5975 by the altarH4196 to burn incenseH6999.1

2And he criedH7121 against the altarH4196 in the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068, and saidH559, O altarH4196, altarH4196, thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; Behold, a childH1121 shall be bornH3205 unto the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, JosiahH2977 by nameH8034; and upon thee shall he offerH2076 the priestsH3548 of the high placesH1116 that burn incenseH6999 upon thee, and men’sH120 bonesH6106 shall be burntH8313 upon thee.

3And he gaveH5414 a signH4159 the same dayH3117, sayingH559, This is the signH4159 which YhwhH3068 hath spokenH1696; Behold, the altarH4196 shall be rentH7167, and the ashesH1880 that are upon it shall be poured outH8210.

4And it came to pass, when kingH4428 JeroboamH3379 heardH8085 the sayingH1697 of the manH376 of GodH430, which had criedH7121 against the altarH4196 in Beth–elH1008, that he put forthH7971 his handH3027 from the altarH4196, sayingH559, Lay holdH8610 on him. And his handH3027, which he put forthH7971 against him, dried upH3001, so that he couldH3201 not pull it in againH7725 to him.

5The altarH4196 also was rentH7167, and the ashesH1880 poured outH8210 from the altarH4196, according to the signH4159 which the manH376 of GodH430 had givenH5414 by the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068.
