14So he went after the man of God and found him sitting under the terebinth, 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.”

16And he said, “I cannot return with you or go with you, and I will not eat bread or drink water with you in this place.”

17For a word came to me by the word of the LORD: ‘You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water there; you shall not return by going on the way by which you went.’
