1 Kings 20:36-38

New International Reader's Version

³⁶ The prophet said, “You haven’t obeyed the Lord. So as soon as you leave me, a lion will kill you.” The companion went away. And a lion found him and killed him.

³⁷ The prophet found another man. He said, “Please strike me down.” So the man struck him down and wounded him. ³⁸ Then the prophet went and stood by the road. He waited for the king to come by. He pulled his headband down over his eyes so no one would recognize him.
