11:013:021 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,

11:013:022 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.

11:013:023 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.

11:013:024 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.

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.
