1 Kings 13:17
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For I have been told by the word of the LORD: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water there or return by the way you came.’”
In context
15 So the prophet said to the man of God, “Come home with me and eat some bread.”
16 But the man replied, “I cannot return with you or eat bread or drink water with you in this place.
17 For I have been told by the word of the LORD: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water there or return by the way you came.’”
18 Then the prophet replied, “I too am a prophet like you, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the LORD, saying, ‘Bring him back with you to your house, so that he may eat bread and drink water.’” The old prophet was lying to him,
19 but the man of God went back with him, ate bread in his house, and drank water.
