“For it was said to me by the word of Yahweh, 'You shall eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that you came.'"”

and took off after the prophet, whom he found sitting under an oak tree. He asked him,“Are you the prophet from Judah?” He answered,“Yes, I am.”

But he replied,“I can’t go back with you. I am not allowed to eat food or to drink water with you in this place.
For an order came to me in the LORD’s message,‘Eat no food. Drink no water there. And do not return by the way you came.’”
Then the old prophet said,“I too am a prophet like you. And an angel has told me in a message from the LORD,‘Bring him back with you to your house so he can eat food and drink water.’” But he had lied to him.
So the prophet went back with him. He ate food in his house and he drank water.
While they were sitting at the table, the LORD’s message came to the old prophet who had brought him back.
