11Now 1an oldH2205 prophetH5030 was livingH3427 in BethelH1008; and his 2sonsH1121 cameH935 and toldH5608 him allH3605 the deedsH4639 whichH834 the manH376 of GodH430 had doneH6213 that dayH3117 in BethelH1008; the wordsH1697 whichH834 he had spokenH1696 to the kingH4428, these also they reportedH5608 to their fatherH1. 12And their fatherH1 saidH1696 to them, “3WhichH335H2088 wayH1870 did he goH1980?” Now his sonsH1121 4had seenH7200 the wayH1870 that the manH376 of GodH430 whoH834 cameH935 from JudahH3063 had goneH1980. 13Then he saidH559 to his sonsH1121, “SaddleH2280 the donkeyH2543 for me.” So they saddledH2280 the donkeyH2543 for him and he rodeH7392 away on it. 14So he wentH1980 afterH310 the manH376 of GodH430 and foundH4672 him sittingH3427 underH8478 5an oakH424; and he saidH559 to him, “Are you the manH376 of GodH430 whoH834 cameH935 from JudahH3063?” And he saidH559, “I am.” 15Then he saidH559 to him, “ComeH1980 homeH1004 with me and eatH398 breadH3899.” 16But he saidH559, “6I cannotH3201H3808 returnH7725 with you, norH3808 comeH935 with you, norH3808 will I eatH398 breadH3899 or drinkH8354 waterH4325 with you in thisH2088 placeH4725. 17For a 7commandH1697 came to me 8by the wordH1697 of the LordH3068: ‘You shall not eatH398 breadH3899, norH3808 drinkH8354 waterH4325 thereH8033; do not returnH7725 by goingH1980 the wayH1870 that you cameH1980.’” 18Then he saidH559 to him, “9I tooH1571 am a prophetH5030 likeH3644 you, and 10an angelH4397 spokeH1696 to me by the wordH1697 of the LordH3068, sayingH559, ‘BringH7725 him backH7725 with you to your houseH1004, so that he may eatH398 breadH3899 and drinkH8354 waterH4325.’” But 11he liedH3584 to him. 19So he wentH7725 backH7725 with him, and ateH398 breadH3899 in his houseH1004 and drankH8354 waterH4325.
