1 Kings 13:24-26

Expanded Bible

²⁴ As he was traveling home, a lion ·attacked [^Lmet] and killed him. His body lay on the road, with the donkey and the lion standing nearby. ²⁵ Some men who were traveling by saw the body on the road and the lion standing nearby. So they went to the city [^CBethel] where the old prophet lived and told what they had seen.

²⁶ The old prophet who had brought back the man of God heard what had happened. “It is the man of God who did not obey the Lord’s command,” he said. “So the Lord sent a lion to kill him, ·just as he said he would [^Laccording to the word of the Lord].”
