35 Now a certain son of the men who spoke for God said to another by the word of the Lord, “Hit me.” But the man would not hit him. 36 Then he said to him, “Because you have not listened to the voice of the Lord, as soon as you have left me, a lion will kill you.” And as soon as he had left him, a lion found him and killed him. 37 Then he found another man and said, “Hit me.” And the man hit him, and hurt him.
