1 Kings 20:38 In-Context

36 The disciple said, "Since you didn't obey the LORD, a lion will kill you when you leave me." When the friend left, a lion found him and killed him.
37 Then the disciple found another man. He said, "Punch me." The man punched him hard and wounded him.
38 Then the prophet, disguised with a bandage over his eyes, waited for the king by the road.
39 When the king passed by, the disciple called to him. "I went to fight in the battle. A man turned around and brought a prisoner to me. He said, 'Guard this prisoner. If he gets away, you will pay for his life with your own life or be fined 75 pounds of silver.'
40 But while I was busy doing other things, he got away." The king of Israel told him, "That's your own penalty. You have determined it yourself."
