1 Kings 13:21-26

[21] And he cried  unto the man  of God  that came  from Judah,  saying,  the LORD,  Forasmuch as  thou hast disobeyed  the mouth  of the LORD,  and hast not kept  the commandment  which the LORD  thy God  commanded  [22] 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.  [23] 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.  [24] 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.  [25] 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.  [26] 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:  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.
