1 Kings 13:1-34

And, behold, there came
<0935> (8804)
a man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
out of Judah
<03063>
by the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
unto Bethel
<01008>_:
and Jeroboam
<03379>
stood
<05975> (8802)
by the altar
<04196>
to burn incense
<06999> (8687)_.
{burn: or, offer}
And he cried
<07121> (8799)
against the altar
<04196>
in the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
O altar
<04196>_,
altar
<04196>_,
thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, a child
<01121>
shall be born
<03205> (8737)
unto the house
<01004>
of David
<01732>_,
Josiah
<02977>
by name
<08034>_;
and upon thee shall he offer
<02076> (8804)
the priests
<03548>
of the high places
<01116>
that burn incense
<06999> (8688)
upon thee, and men's
<0120>
bones
<06106>
shall be burnt
<08313> (8799)
upon thee.
And he gave
<05414> (8804)
a sign
<04159>
the same day
<03117>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This [is] the sign
<04159>
which the LORD
<03068>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_;
Behold, the altar
<04196>
shall be rent
<07167> (8738)_,
and the ashes
<01880>
that [are] upon it shall be poured out
<08210> (8738)_.
And it came to pass, when king
<04428>
Jeroboam
<03379>
heard
<08085> (8800)
the saying
<01697>
of the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
which had cried
<07121> (8804)
against the altar
<04196>
in Bethel
<01008>_,
that he put forth
<07971> (8799)
his hand
<03027>
from the altar
<04196>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Lay hold
<08610> (8798)
on him. And his hand
<03027>_,
which he put forth
<07971> (8804)
against him, dried up
<03001> (8799)_,
so that he could
<03201> (8804)
not pull it in again
<07725> (8687)
to him.
The altar
<04196>
also was rent
<07167> (8738)_,
and the ashes
<01880>
poured out
<08210> (8735)
from the altar
<04196>_,
according to the sign
<04159>
which the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
had given
<05414> (8804)
by the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And the king
<04428>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
Intreat
<02470> (8761)
now the face
<06440>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
and pray
<06419> (8690)
for me, that my hand
<03027>
may be restored me again
<07725> (8799)_.
And the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
besought
<02470> (8762) <06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and the king's
<04428>
hand
<03027>
was restored him again
<07725> (8799)_,
and became as [it was] before
<07223>_.
{the LORD, and: Heb. the face of the LORD, etc}
And the king
<04428>
said
<01696> (8762)
unto the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
Come
<0935> (8798)
home
<01004>
with me, and refresh
<05582> (8798)
thyself, and I will give
<05414> (8799)
thee a reward
<04991>_.
And the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
If thou wilt give
<05414> (8799)
me half
<02677>
thine house
<01004>_,
I will not go in
<0935> (8799)
with thee, neither will I eat
<0398> (8799)
bread
<03899>
nor drink
<08354> (8799)
water
<04325>
in this place
<04725>_:
For so was it charged
<06680> (8765)
me by the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Eat
<0398> (8799)
no bread
<03899>_,
nor drink
<08354> (8799)
water
<04325>_,
nor turn again
<07725> (8799)
by the same way
<01870>
that thou camest
<01980> (8804)_.
So he went
<03212> (8799)
another
<0312>
way
<01870>_,
and returned
<07725> (8804)
not by the way
<01870>
that he came
<0935> (8804)
to Bethel
<01008>_.
Now there dwelt
<03427> (8802)
an
<0259>
old
<02205>
prophet
<05030>
in Bethel
<01008>_;
and his sons
<01121>
came
<0935> (8799)
and told
<05608> (8762)
him all the works
<04639>
that the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
had done
<06213> (8804)
that day
<03117>
in Bethel
<01008>_:
the words
<01697>
which he had spoken
<01696> (8765)
unto the king
<04428>_,
them they told
<05608> (8762)
also to their father
<01>_.
And their father
<01>
said
<01696> (8762)
unto them, What way
<01870>
went
<01980> (8804)
he? For his sons
<01121>
had seen
<07200> (8799)
what
<0335>
way
<01870>
the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
went
<01980> (8804)_,
which came
<0935> (8804)
from Judah
<03063>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto his sons
<01121>_,
Saddle
<02280> (8798)
me the ass
<02543>_.
So they saddled
<02280> (8799)
him the ass
<02543>_:
and he rode
<07392> (8799)
thereon,
And went
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
and found
<04672> (8799)
him sitting
<03427> (8802)
under an oak
<0424>_:
and he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, [Art] thou the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
that camest
<0935> (8804)
from Judah
<03063>_?
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
I [am].
Then he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Come
<03212> (8798)
home
<01004>
with me, and eat
<0398> (8798)
bread
<03899>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
I may
<03201> (8799)
not return
<07725> (8800)
with thee, nor go in
<0935> (8800)
with thee: neither will I eat
<0398> (8799)
bread
<03899>
nor drink
<08354> (8799)
water
<04325>
with thee in this place
<04725>_:
For it was said
<01697>
to me by the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
Thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)
no bread
<03899>
nor drink
<08354> (8799)
water
<04325>
there, nor turn again
<07725> (8799)
to go
<03212> (8800)
by the way
<01870>
that thou camest
<01980> (8804)_.
{it...: Heb. a word was}
He said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, I [am] a prophet
<05030>
also as thou [art]; and an angel
<04397>
spake
<01696> (8765)
unto me by the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Bring him back
<07725> (8685)
with thee into thine house
<01004>_,
that he may eat
<0398> (8799)
bread
<03899>
and drink
<08354> (8799)
water
<04325>_.
[But] he lied
<03584> (8765)
unto him.
So he went back
<07725> (8799)
with him, and did eat
<0398> (8799)
bread
<03899>
in his house
<01004>_,
and drank
<08354> (8799)
water
<04325>_.
And it came to pass, as they sat
<03427> (8802)
at the table
<07979>_,
that the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto the prophet
<05030>
that brought him back
<07725> (8689)_:
And he cried
<07121> (8799)
unto the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
that came
<0935> (8804)
from Judah
<03063>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Forasmuch as
<03282>
thou hast disobeyed
<04784> (8804)
the mouth
<06310>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and hast not kept
<08104> (8804)
the commandment
<04687>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee,
But camest back
<07725> (8799)_,
and hast eaten
<0398> (8799)
bread
<03899>
and drunk
<08354> (8799)
water
<04325>
in the place
<04725>_,
of the which [the LORD] did say
<01696> (8765)
to thee, Eat
<0398> (8799)
no bread
<03899>_,
and drink
<08354> (8799)
no water
<04325>_;
thy carcase
<05038>
shall not come
<0935> (8799)
unto the sepulchre
<06913>
of thy fathers
<01>_.
And it came to pass, after
<0310>
he had eaten
<0398> (8800)
bread
<03899>_,
and after
<0310>
he had drunk
<08354> (8800)_,
that he saddled
<02280> (8799)
for him the ass
<02543>_,
[to wit], for the prophet
<05030>
whom he had brought back
<07725> (8689)_.
And when he was gone
<03212> (8799)_,
a lion
<0738>
met
<04672> (8799)
him by the way
<01870>_,
and slew
<04191> (8686)
him: and his carcase
<05038>
was cast
<07993> (8716)
in the way
<01870>_,
and the ass
<02543>
stood
<05975> (8802)
by
<0681>
it, the lion
<0738>
also stood
<05975> (8802)
by the carcase
<05038>_.
And, behold, men
<0582>
passed by
<05674> (8802)_,
and saw
<07200> (8799)
the carcase
<05038>
cast
<07993> (8716)
in the way
<01870>_,
and the lion
<0738>
standing
<05975> (8802)
by
<0681>
the carcase
<05038>_:
and they came
<0935> (8799)
and told
<01696> (8762)
[it] in the city
<05892>
where the old
<02205>
prophet
<05030>
dwelt
<03427> (8802)_.
And when the prophet
<05030>
that brought him back
<07725> (8689)
from the way
<01870>
heard
<08085> (8799)
[thereof], he said
<0559> (8799)_,
It [is] the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
who was disobedient
<04784> (8804)
unto the word
<06310>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
therefore the LORD
<03068>
hath delivered
<05414> (8799)
him unto the lion
<0738>_,
which hath torn
<07665> (8799)
him, and slain
<04191> (8686)
him, according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which he spake
<01696> (8765)
unto him. {torn: Heb. broken}
And he spake
<01696> (8762)
to his sons
<01121>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Saddle
<02280> (8798)
me the ass
<02543>_.
And they saddled
<02280> (8799)
[him].
And he went
<03212> (8799)
and found
<04672> (8799)
his carcase
<05038>
cast
<07993> (8716)
in the way
<01870>_,
and the ass
<02543>
and the lion
<0738>
standing
<05975> (8802)
by
<0681>
the carcase
<05038>_:
the lion
<0738>
had not eaten
<0398> (8804)
the carcase
<05038>_,
nor torn
<07665> (8804)
the ass
<02543>_.
{torn: Heb. broken}
And the prophet
<05030>
took up
<05375> (8799)
the carcase
<05038>
of the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
and laid
<03240> (8686)
it upon the ass
<02543>_,
and brought it back
<07725> (8686)_:
and the old
<02205>
prophet
<05030>
came
<0935> (8799)
to the city
<05892>_,
to mourn
<05594> (8800)
and to bury
<06912> (8800)
him.
And he laid
<03240> (8686)
his carcase
<05038>
in his own grave
<06913>_;
and they mourned
<05594> (8799)
over him, [saying], Alas
<01945>_,
my brother
<0251>_!
And it came to pass, after
<0310>
he had buried
<06912> (8800)
him, that he spake
<0559> (8799)
to his sons
<01121>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
When I am dead
<04191> (8800)_,
then bury
<06912> (8804)
me in the sepulchre
<06913>
wherein the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>
[is] buried
<06912> (8803)_;
lay
<03240> (8685)
my bones
<06106>
beside
<0681>
his bones
<06106>_:
For the saying
<01697>
which he cried
<07121> (8804)
by the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
against the altar
<04196>
in Bethel
<01008>_,
and against all the houses
<01004>
of the high places
<01116>
which [are] in the cities
<05892>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
shall surely come to pass.
After
<0310>
this thing
<01697>
Jeroboam
<03379>
returned
<07725> (8804)
not from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
but made
<06213> (8799)
again
<07725> (8799)
of the lowest
<07098>
of the people
<05971>
priests
<03548>
of the high places
<01116>_:
whosoever would
<02655>_,
he consecrated
<04390> (8762) <03027>
him, and he became [one] of the priests
<03548>
of the high places
<01116>_.
{made...: Heb. returned and made} {consecrated...: Heb. filled his hand}
And this thing
<01697>
became sin
<02403>
unto the house
<01004>
of Jeroboam
<03379>_,
even to cut [it] off
<03582> (8687)_,
and to destroy
<08045> (8687)
[it] from off the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0127>_.
