1 Kings 13:25-32

25And, behold, menH582 passed byH5674, and sawH7200 the carcaseH5038 castH7993 in the wayH1870, and the lionH738 standingH5975 byH681 the carcaseH5038: and they cameH935 and toldH1696 it in the cityH5892 where the oldH2205 prophetH5030 dweltH3427.

26And when the prophetH5030 that brought him backH7725 from the wayH1870 heardH8085 thereof, he saidH559, It is the manH376 of GodH430, who was disobedientH4784 unto the wordH6310 of YhwhH3068: Therefore YhwhH3068 hath deliveredH5414 him unto the lionH738, which hath tornH7665 him, and slainH4191 him, according to the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068, which he spakeH1696 unto him.1

27And he spakeH1696 to his sonsH1121, sayingH559, SaddleH2280 me the donkeyH2543. And they saddledH2280 him.

28And he wentH3212 and foundH4672 his carcaseH5038 castH7993 in the wayH1870, and the donkeyH2543 and the lionH738 standingH5975 byH681 the carcaseH5038: the lionH738 had not eatenH398 the carcaseH5038, nor tornH7665 the donkeyH2543.2

29And the prophetH5030 took upH5375 the carcaseH5038 of the manH376 of GodH430, and laidH3240 it upon the donkeyH2543, and brought it backH7725: and the oldH2205 prophetH5030 cameH935 to the cityH5892, to mournH5594 and to buryH6912 him.

30And he laidH3240 his carcaseH5038 in his own graveH6913; and they mournedH5594 over him, saying, AlasH1945, my brotherH251!

31And it came to pass, afterH310 he had buriedH6912 him, that he spakeH559 to his sonsH1121, sayingH559, When I am deadH4191, then buryH6912 me in the sepulchreH6913 wherein the manH376 of GodH430 is buriedH6912; layH3240 my bonesH6106 besideH681 his bonesH6106:

32For the sayingH1697 which he criedH7121 by the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 against the altarH4196 in Beth–elH1008, and against all the housesH1004 of the high placesH1116 which are in the citiesH5892 of SamariaH8111, shall surely come to pass.
