Bible. Kings, 1st
11:013:025 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.
11:013:026 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.
11:013:027 And he spake to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass. And they
saddled him.
11:013:028 And he went and found his carcase cast in the way, and the ass
and the lion standing by the carcase: the lion had not eaten
the carcase, nor torn the ass.
11:013:029 And the prophet took up the carcase of the man of God, and
laid it upon the ass, and brought it back: and the old prophet
came to the city, to mourn and to bury him.
11:013:030 And he laid his carcase in his own grave; and they mourned
over him, saying, Alas, my brother!
11:013:031 And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spake to
his sons, saying, When I am dead, then bury me in the
sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried; lay my bones
beside his bones:
11:013:032 For the saying which he cried by the word of the LORD against
the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high
places which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come
to pass.
11:013:033 After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil way, but
made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high
places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became one
of the priests of the high places.
11:013:034 And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to
cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.
11:014:001 At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.
11:014:002 And Jeroboam said to his wife, Arise, I pray thee, and
disguise thyself, that thou be not known to be the wife of
Jeroboam; and get thee to Shiloh: behold, there is Ahijah the
prophet, which told me that I should be king over this people.
11:014:003 And take with thee ten loaves, and cracknels, and a cruse of
honey, and go to him: he shall tell thee what shall become of
the child.
11:014:004 And Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and
came to the house of Ahijah. But Ahijah could not see; for his
eyes were set by reason of his age.
