18. He 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 bread and drink water.’ ” The old prophet deceived him,
19. and the man of God went back with him, ate bread in his house, and drank water.
20. While they were sitting at the table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had brought him back,
21. and the prophet cried out to the man of God who had come from Judah, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Because you rebelled against the command of the Lord and did not keep the command that the Lord your God commanded you —
22. but you went back and ate bread and drank water in the place that He said to you, “Do not eat bread and do not drink water” — your corpse will never reach the grave of your fathers.’ ”
23. So after he had eaten bread and after he had drunk, the old prophet saddled the donkey for the prophet he had brought back.
