18 He said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are; and an angel spoke to me by the Lord’s word, saying, ‘Bring him back with you into your house, that he may eat bread and drink water.’” He lied to him.
19 So he went back with him, ate bread in his house, and drank water.
20 As they sat at the table, the Lord’s word came to the prophet who brought him back;
21 and he cried out to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, “the Lord says, ‘Because you have been disobedient to the Lord’s mouth, and have not kept the commandment which the Lord your God commanded you,
22 but came back, and have eaten bread and drank water in the place of which he said to you, “Eat no bread, and drink no water;” your body will not come to the tomb of your fathers.’”
23 After he had eaten bread, and after he drank, he saddled the donkey for the prophet whom he had brought back.
24 When he had gone, a lion met him by the way and killed him. His body was thrown on the path, and the donkey stood by it. The lion also stood by the body.
