1 Kings 13:13

And he said unto his sons, saddle me the ass
Which he used to ride on; intimating he had a mind to ride after him, and overtake him, as he might reasonably think he might, since the man of God was on foot:

so they saddled him the ass, and he rode thereon;
after the man of God, taking the way his sons directed.
