God killed him.

And I [Jacob] said unto him [Sherem] ... if God shall smite thee, let that be a sign unto thee that he has power, both in heaven and in earth; and also, that Christ shall come ... And it came to pass that when I, Jacob, had spoken these words, the power of the Lord came upon him, insomuch that he fell to the earth ... and he gave up the ghost. Jacob 7:14-20
