The old prophet lays the body of the man of God in his own grave and speaks to his sons

늙은 선지자가 하나님의 사람의 시체를 자기의 묘실에 두고 그 아들들에게 말함

1 Kings 13:26–32: the text says, “When the prophet who brought him back from the way heard of it, he said, ‘It is the man of God who was disobedient to the LORD’s word. Therefore the LORD has delivered him to the lion, which has mauled him and slain him, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke to him.’” He says to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they saddle it. He goes and finds his body thrown on the path, and the donkey and the lion standing by the body. The text says, “The lion had not eaten the body nor mauled the donkey.” The prophet takes up the body of the man of God, and lays it on the donkey, and brings it back. He comes to the city of the old prophet to mourn, and to bury him. He lays his body in his own grave; and they mourn over him, saying, “Alas, my brother!” After he had buried him, he speaks to his sons, saying, “When I am dead, bury me in the tomb in which the man of God is buried. Lay my bones beside his bones. For the saying which he cried by the LORD’s word against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, will surely happen.” The Korean Revised Version names the old prophet (늙은 선지자가) at 13:29, where WEB says “The prophet”, and has one mourner at 13:30 (그를 위하여 슬피 울며 가로되), where WEB says “they mourned over him”.
