23 ¶ And he went up from thence unto Bethel. And as he was going up the way, little children came out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Come up, thou bald head, come up, thou bald head.
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and [a]cursed them in the name of the Lord. And two bears came out of the forest, and tore in pieces two and forty children of them.
25 So he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
