11 And one prophet, an old man, dwelt in the house of God; and his sons will come and relate to him all the work which the man of God did that day in the house of God: the words which he spake to the king, and they will relate them to their father.

12 And their father will speak to them, What way went he? and his sons will see the way that the man of God went who came from Judah.

13 And he will say to his sons, Saddle for me the ass: and they will saddle for him the ass and he will ride upon it.

14 And he will go after the man of God, and he will find him sitting under an oak: and he will say to him, Thou the man of God who came from Judah? And he will say, I.

15 And he will say to him, Go with me to the house and eat bread.

16 And he will say, I shall not be able to turn back with thee and to go with thee: and I will not eat bread and I will not drink water with thee in this place:

17 For it was spoken to me by the word of Jehovah, Thou shalt not eat bread and thou shalt not drink water there, thou shalt not turn back to go in the way which thou wentest in it.
