1 Kings 13:29-34 ▼

29 The prophet picked up the body of the man of God, laid it on the donkey, and brought it back to the city where the old man lived so he could mourn and bury him.

30 He buried the corpse in his own grave and his family mourned for him, crying out, |Oh, no! My brother!|

31 After he had buried the man of God, he gave these instructions to his children: |When I die, bury me in the same grave in which the man of God is buried. Place my bones beside his,

32 because what he predicted by a message from the LORD against the altar in Bethel and the temples built in the high places of the cities of Samaria will certainly come about.|

33 Despite everything that happened, Jeroboam never did repent of his evil practices. Instead, he appointed even more people to act as priests for the high places. Anyone who wanted to be a priest was ordained to be a priest in the high places.

34 This practice became so sinful that the LORD decided to erase Jeroboam's dynasty, thus eliminating it from the face of the earth.
