1 Kings 13:8 in Context — 1 Kings 13
6 Alors le roi prit la parole, et dit à l’homme de Dieu: Implore l’Éternel, ton Dieu, et prie pour moi, afin que je puisse retirer ma main. L’homme de Dieu implora l’Éternel, et le roi put retirer sa main, qui fut comme auparavant.
7 Le roi dit à l’homme de Dieu: Entre avec moi dans la maison, tu prendras quelque nourriture, et je te donnerai un présent.
8 L’homme de Dieu dit au roi: Quand tu me donnerais la moitié de ta maison, je n’entrerais pas avec toi. Je ne mangerai point de pain, et je ne boirai point d’eau dans ce lieu-ci;
9 car cet ordre m’a été donné, par la parole de l’Éternel: Tu ne mangeras point de pain et tu ne boiras point d’eau, et tu ne prendras pas à ton retour le chemin par lequel tu seras allé.
10 Et il s’en alla par un autre chemin, il ne prit pas à son retour le chemin par lequel il était venu à Béthel.
