Solomon also made all the equipment in the Lord’s temple: the gold altar; the gold table that the bread of the Presence was placed on;

But the man of God replied, “If you were to give me half your house, I still wouldn’t go with you, and I wouldn’t eat bread or drink water in this place,

for this is what I was commanded by the word of the Lord: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water or go back the way you came.’”

Then he said to him, “Come home with me and eat bread.”

But he answered, “I cannot go back with you, eat bread, or drink water with you in this place,

for a message came to me by the word of the Lord: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water there or go back by the way you came.’”

He said to him, “I am also a prophet like you. An angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord: ‘Bring him back with you to your house so that he may eat bread and drink water.’” The old prophet deceived him,

and the man of God went back with him, ate bread in his house, and drank water.

As she went to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand.”

Then he looked, and there at his head was a loaf of bread baked over hot stones, and a jug of water. So he ate and drank and lay down again.
