KJV - 1 Kings 20:36

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.

Then he said to him, "You didn't listen to God's command, so when you leave me, a lion will kill you." As soon as he left, a lion found him and killed him.
