1 Kings 13:15-17

New English Translation

¹⁵ He then said to him, “Come home with me and eat something.” ¹⁶ But he replied, “I can’t go back with you.^[a] I am not allowed to eat food or to drink water with you in this place. ¹⁷ For an order came to me in the Lord’s message, ‘Eat no food. Drink no water there. And do not return by the way you came.’”
