New American Standard Bible

Chapter 13

13Then he said to his sons, 'Saddle the donkey for me.' So they saddled the donkey for him and he rode away on it. 14So he went after the man of God and found him sitting under an oak; and he said to him, 'Are you the man of God who came from Judah?' And he said, 'I am.' 15Then he said to him, 'Come home with me and eat bread.' 16But he said, 'I cannot return with you, nor come with you, nor will I eat bread or drink water with you in this place. 17For a command came to me by the word of the Lord: ‘You shall not eat bread, nor drink water there; do not return by going the way that you came.’?' 18Then he said to him, '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.’?' But he lied to him.
King James Version

Chapter 13

13And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass: and he rode thereon, 14And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he said unto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am. 15Then he said unto him, Come home with me, and eat bread. 16And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place: 17For it was said to me by the word of the Lord, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou camest. 18He said unto him, I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spake unto me by the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him.

Chapter 13

13Then he said to his sons, "Saddle the donkey for me." So they saddled the donkey for him, and he got on it.
14He followed the man of God and found him sitting under an oak tree. He asked him, "Are you the man of God who came from Judah?" "I am," he said.
15Then he said to him, "Come home with me and eat some food."
16But he answered, "I cannot go back with you or accompany you; I will not eat food or drink water with you in this place. 17For a message came to me by the word of the Lord: ‘You must not eat food or drink water there or go back by the way you came.’"
18He said to him, "I am also a prophet like you. An angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord: ‘Bring him back with you to your house so that he may eat food and drink water.’" The old prophet deceived him,

Chapter 13

13Quick, saddle the donkey,' the old man said. So they saddled the donkey for him, and he mounted it.
14Then he rode after the man of God and found him sitting under a great tree. The old prophet asked him, 'Are you the man of God who came from Judah?' 'Yes, I am,' he replied.
15Then he said to the man of God, 'Come home with me and eat some food.'
16No, I cannot,' he replied. 'I am not allowed to eat or drink anything here in this place. 17For the Lord gave me this command: ‘You must not eat or drink anything while you are there, and do not return to Judah by the same way you came.’'
18But the old prophet answered, 'I am a prophet, too, just as you are. And an angel gave me this command from the Lord: ‘Bring him home with you so he can have something to eat and drink.’' But the old man was lying to him.
