Easy-to-Read Version

A Prophet Speaks Against Ahab

³⁵ One of the prophets told another prophet, “Hit me!” He said that because the Lord had commanded it. But the other prophet refused to hit him. ³⁶ So the first prophet said, “You did not obey the Lord’s command. So a lion will kill you when you leave this place.” When the second prophet left, a lion killed him.

³⁷ The first prophet went to another man and said, “Hit me!”

This man hit him and hurt the prophet.
