1 Kings 13:16-18

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁶ But he said, “I cannot return with you, or go in with you; nor will I eat food or drink water with you in this place; ¹⁷ for it was said to me by the word of the Lord: You shall not eat food or drink water there, or return by the way that you came.” ¹⁸ Then the other^[a] said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord: Bring him back with you into your house so that he may eat food and drink water.” But he was deceiving him.
