15 Alors il lui dit: Viens avec moi à la maison, et tu prendras quelque nourriture.
16 Mais il répondit: Je ne puis ni retourner avec toi, ni entrer chez toi. Je ne mangerai point de pain, je ne boirai point d’eau avec toi en ce lieu-ci;
17 car il m’a été dit, par la parole de l’Éternel: Tu n’y mangeras point de pain et tu n’y boiras point d’eau, et tu ne prendras pas à ton retour le chemin par lequel tu seras allé.
18 Et il lui dit: Moi aussi, je suis prophète comme toi; et un ange m’a parlé de la part de l’Éternel, et m’a dit: Ramène-le avec toi dans ta maison, et qu’il mange du pain et boive de l’eau. Il lui mentait.
19 L’homme de Dieu retourna avec lui, et il mangea du pain et but de l’eau dans sa maison.
