1 Kings 13:11-19

11Now there was an old prophet living in Bethel. When his sons came home, they told their father everything the prophet had done in Bethel that day and all the words he had spoken to the king.

12Their father asked them, “Which road did he take?” His sons showed him the road the prophet from Judah had taken.

13He then told his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” When they had saddled the donkey for him, he mounted it

14and took off after the prophet, whom he found sitting under an oak tree. He asked him, “Are you the prophet from Judah?” He answered, “Yes, I am.”

15He then said to him, “Come home with me and eat something.”

16But he replied, “I can’t go back with you or eat and drink with you in this place.

17For the Lord gave me strict orders, ‘Do not eat or drink there; do not go back the way you came.’”

18The old prophet then said, “I too am a prophet like you. An angel told me with the Lord’s authority, ‘Bring him back with you to your house so he can eat and drink.’” But he was lying to him.

19So the prophet went back with him and ate and drank in his house.
