1 Kings 20:37-39

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³⁷ Then [the prophet] found another man and said, Strike me, I pray you. And the man struck him, so that in striking, he wounded him.

³⁸ So the prophet departed and waited for King Ahab by the way, and disguised himself with ashes upon his face.

³⁹ And as the king passed by, the [prophet] cried out to him, Your servant went out into the midst of the battle, and behold, a man turned aside and brought a man to me and said, Keep this man. If for any reason he is missing, then your life shall be required for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.
