1 Kings 20:39-41

Revised Geneva Translation

³⁹ And when the king came by, he cried to the king, and said, “Your servant went into the midst of the battle, and behold, there went away a man whom another man brought to me, and said, ‘Guard this man. If he is lost for any reason, your life shall go for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.’

⁴⁰ “And as your servant was busy here and there, he was gone.” And the king of Israel said to him, “So shall your judgment be. You have given sentence.”

⁴¹ And he hurried and took the ashes away from his face. And the king of Israel knew him, that he was of the Prophets.
