13 Then he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” So they saddled the donkey for him; and he rode on it,
14 and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak. Then he said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” And he said, “I am.”
15 Then he said to him, “Come home with me and eat bread.”
16 And he said, a“I cannot return with you nor go in with you; neither can I eat bread nor drink water with you in this place.
17 For I have been told aby the word of the Lord, ‘You shall not eat bread nor drink water there, nor return by going the way you came.’ ”
