"Then the king said to the man of God: “Come home with me, so that you may dine. And I will give you gifts.” "
— 1 Kings 13:7, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.”
“And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward. ”
“The king said to the man of God, "Come home with me, and refresh yourself, and I will give you a reward."”
“The king then said to the prophet,“Come home with me and have something to eat, so that I may give you a gift.””
“And the king said to the man of God: Come home with me to dine, and I will make thee presents.”
“And the king said to the man of God, Come with me to my house for food and rest, and I will give you a reward.”
“And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.”
And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar at Bethel, he extended his hand from the altar, saying, “Apprehend him!” But his hand, which he had extended against him, withered. And he was unable to draw it back to himself.
Also, the altar was torn apart, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, in accord with the sign that the man of God had predicted by the word of the Lord.
And the king said to the man of God, “Entreat the face of the Lord your God, and pray for me, so that my hand may be restored to me.” And the man of God prayed before the face of the Lord, and the hand of the king was restored to him, and it became as it had been before.
Then the king said to the man of God: “Come home with me, so that you may dine. And I will give you gifts.”
And the man of God responded to the king: “Even if you will give me one half part of your house, I will not go with you, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place.
For so it was commanded to me by the word of the Lord, ordering: ‘You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water, nor shall you return by the way that you came.’ ”
Then he departed by another way, and he did not return along the way that he had traveled to Bethel.
