1 Kings 13:1‑22,31• 1And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of Jehovah unto Bethel: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.
 2And he cried against the altar in the word of Jehovah, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith Jehovah; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burnt upon thee.
 3And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which Jehovah hath spoken: Behold the altar shall be rent and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.
 4And it came to pass when the king heard the word of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, that Jeroboam stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold of him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him.
 5The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.
 6And the king answered and said unto the man of God, Intreat now the face of Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again. The man of God besought Jehovah and the king's hand was restored to him again, and became as it was before.
 7And the king said to the man of God, Come home with me and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.
 8And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place:
 9for so was it charged me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again by the same way that thou camest.
 10So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he had come to Bethel.
 11Now there dwelt an old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: the words which he had spoken unto the king, them they told also to their father.
 12And their father said unto them, What way went he? For his sons had seen what way the man of God went, which came from Judah.
 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 Jehovah, 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 Jehovah saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him.
 19So he went back with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water.
 20And it came to pass as they sat at the table, that the word of Jehovah came to the prophet that brought him back;
 21and he cried unto the man of God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the mouth of Jehovah, and hast not kept the commandment which Jehovah thy God commanded thee,
 22but camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place of the which Jehovah did say to thee, Eat no bread, and drink no water; thy carcass shall not come unto the sepulchre of thy fathers.
 31And it came to pass after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons saying, When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones. (1 Kings 13:1‑22,31)
