Then said he unto him, Because thou hast not obeyed the voice of the LORD, behold, as soon as thou art departed from me, a lion shall slay thee. And as soon as he was departed from him, a lion found him, and slew him — The refusing prophet is killed by a lion as judgment for his disobedience. The phrase shows prophetic word executed: disobedience to another prophet—who represents God's voice—brings death.
