I położył w grobie swym trupa jego, a płakano go jako brata.
Pochował go zaś w swoim grobie i opłakiwał: Biada, mój bracie!
Tak złożył jego zwłoki do swojego własnego grobu i opłakiwał go słowami: O, mój bracie!
A położył trupa jego w grobie swoim, i płakali go, mówiąc: Ach bracie mój!
Złożył więc jego zwłoki w swoim grobie. I opłakiwali go, mówiąc: Ach, mój bracie!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he laid his carcass in his own grave,.... Which he had prepared for himself; for, as he came from Samaria, it could not be the sepulchre of his fathers; and this was showing all the respect, and doing all the honour to him, he well could:
and they mourned over him; the prophet and his sons: saying,
alas, my brother; which was an usual form of lamentation at funerals in later times, see Jeremiah 22:18.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
He laid his carcase in his own grave - As Joseph of Arimathaea did the body of our Lord Matthew 27:60. The possession of rock-hewn tombs by families, or individuals, was common among the Jews from their first entrance into the holy land to their final expulsion. A sepulchre usually consisted of an underground apartment, into which opened a number of long, narrow âloculi,â or cells, placed side by side, each adapted to receive one body. The cells were 6 or 7 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 3 feet high. They were commonly closed by a stone placed at the end of each. Many such tombs still exist in Palestine.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 13:30. Alas, my brothers — This lamentation is very simple, very short, and very pathetic. Perhaps the old prophet said it as much in reference to himself, who had been the cause of his untimely death, as in reference to the man of God, whose corpse he now committed to the tomb. But the words may be no more than the burden of each line of the lamentation which was used on this occasion. See instances of this among the Asiatics in Clarke's note on "Jeremiah 22:18".
