1 Kings 20:37 in Context — 1 Kings 20

35 Então um homem dos filhos dos profetas disse a seu companheiro por palavra de Deus: Fere-me agora. Mas o outro homem não quis ferir-lhe.

36 E ele lhe disse: Porquanto não obedeceste à palavra do SENHOR, eis que em apartando-te de mim, te ferirá um leão. E quando se separou dele, encontrou-lhe um leão, e feriu-lhe.

37 Encontrou-se logo com outro homem, e disse-lhe: Fere-me agora. E o homem lhe deu um golpe, e fez-lhe uma ferida.

38 E o profeta se foi, e pôs-se diante do rei no caminho, e disfarçou-se com um véu sobre os olhos.

39 E quando o rei passava, ele deu vozes ao rei, e disse: Teu servo saiu entre a tropa: e eis que um, que estava a sair, trouxe-me um homem, dizendo: Guarda a este homem, e se ele vier a faltar, tua vida será pela dele, ou pagarás um talento de prata.
