1 Kings 13:6-8

Contemporary English Version

⁶ “Please pray to the Lord your God and ask him to heal my hand,” Jeroboam begged.

The prophet prayed, and Jeroboam's hand was healed.

⁷ “Come home with me and eat something,” Jeroboam said. “I want to give you a gift for what you have done.”

⁸ “No, I wouldn't go with you, even if you offered me half of your kingdom. I won't eat or drink here either.
