*
And he cried unto the man of God that came from Judah ,
saying ,
Thus saith the LORD ,
Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the mouth of the LORD ,
and hast not kept the commandment which the LORD thy God commanded thee ,
*
But camest back ,
and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place ,
of the which the LORD did say to thee ,
Eat no bread ,
and drink no water ;
thy carcase shall not come unto the sepulchre of thy fathers .
*
And it came to pass ,
after he had eaten bread ,
and after he had drunk ,
that he saddled for him the ass ,
to wit ,
for the prophet whom he had brought back .
*
And when he was gone ,
a lion met him by the way ,
and slew him :
and his carcase was cast in the way ,
and the ass stood by it ,
the lion also stood by the carcase .
*
And ,
behold ,
men passed by ,
and saw the carcase cast in the way ,
and the lion standing by the carcase :
and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet dwelt .
*
And when the prophet that brought him back from the way heard thereof ,
he said ,
It is the man of God ,
who was disobedient unto the word of the LORD :
therefore the LORD hath delivered him unto the lion ,
which hath torn him ,
and slain him ,
according to the word of the LORD ,
which he spake unto him .
