A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 27 is found in chapter 13 of 1 Kings. While they eat, the old prophet receives a true word announcing judgment against the man of God for his disobedience. Afterwards, the man dies on the road and is buried by the old prophet himself. The episode is deliberately tragic: the messenger who correctly proclaimed judgment against the altar is not exempt from obeying the word he himself had received. Prophetic ministry requires consistency between message and conduct.

Und er sprach zu seinen Söhnen: Sattelt mir den Esel! Und da sie ihn gesattelt hatten,
Y habló a sus hijos, y díjoles: Enalbardadme un asno. Y ellos se lo enalbardaron.
Luego les dijo a sus hijos: «Ensíllenme el burro». Y se lo ensillaron.
Puis, s'adressant à ses fils, il dit: Sellez-moi l'âne. Ils le sellèrent,
Poi parlò a’ suoi figliuoli, dicendo: Sellatemi l’asino. Ed essi gliel sellarono.
Então disse a seus filhos: Albardai-me o jumento. Eles o albardaram.
