1 Kings 13:15-19

13:15 He then said to him, “Come home with me and eat something.” 13:16 But he replied, “I can’t go back with you ¹  or eat and drink ²  with you in this place. 13:17 For the Lord gave me strict orders, ³  ‘Do not eat or drink ⁴  there; do not go back the way you came.’” 13:18 The old prophet then said, ⁵  “I too am a prophet like you. An angel told me with the Lord’s authority, ⁶  ‘Bring him back with you to your house so he can eat and drink.’” ⁷  But he was lying to him. ⁸  13:19 So the prophet went back with him and ate and drank in his house. ⁹
