1 Kings 13:11-22
11Now there dweltH3427 anH259 oldH2205 prophetH5030 in Beth–elH1008; and his sonsH1121 cameH935 and toldH5608 him all the worksH4639 that the manH376 of GodH430 had doneH6213 that dayH3117 in Beth–elH1008: the wordsH1697 which he had spokenH1696 unto the kingH4428, them they toldH5608 also to their fatherH1. 12And their fatherH1 saidH1696 unto them, What wayH1870 wentH1980 he? For his sonsH1121 had seenH7200 whatH335 wayH1870 the manH376 of GodH430 wentH1980, which cameH935 from JudahH3063. 13And he saidH559 unto his sonsH1121, SaddleH2280 me the donkeyH2543. So they saddledH2280 him the donkeyH2543: and he rodeH7392 thereon, 14And wentH3212 afterH310 the manH376 of GodH430, and foundH4672 him sittingH3427 under an oakH424: and he saidH559 unto him, Art thou the manH376 of GodH430 that camestH935 from JudahH3063? And he saidH559, I am. 15Then he saidH559 unto him, ComeH3212 homeH1004 with me, and eatH398 breadH3899. 16And he saidH559, I mayH3201 not returnH7725 with thee, nor go inH935 with thee: neither will I eatH398 breadH3899 nor drinkH8354 waterH4325 with thee in this placeH4725: 17For it was saidH1697 to me by the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068, Thou shalt eatH398 no breadH3899 nor drinkH8354 waterH4325 there, nor turn againH7725 to goH3212 by the wayH1870 that thou camestH1980.1 18He saidH559 unto him, I am a prophetH5030 also as thou art; and an angelH4397 spakeH1696 unto me by the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068, sayingH559, Bring him backH7725 with thee into thine houseH1004, that he may eatH398 breadH3899 and drinkH8354 waterH4325. But he liedH3584 unto him. 19So he went backH7725 with him, and did eatH398 breadH3899 in his houseH1004, and drankH8354 waterH4325.
20And it came to pass, as they satH3427 at the tableH7979, that the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came unto the prophetH5030 that brought him backH7725: 21And he criedH7121 unto the manH376 of GodH430 that cameH935 from JudahH3063, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, Forasmuch asH3282 thou hast disobeyedH4784 the mouthH6310 of YhwhH3068, and hast not keptH8104 the commandmentH4687 which YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 thee, 22But camest backH7725, and hast eatenH398 breadH3899 and drunkH8354 waterH4325 in the placeH4725, of the which the Lord did sayH1696 to thee, EatH398 no breadH3899, and drinkH8354 no waterH4325; thy carcaseH5038 shall not comeH935 unto the sepulchreH6913 of thy fathersH1.
