The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Cumque sederent ad mensam, factus est sermo Domini ad prophetam qui reduxerat eum.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῶν καθημένων, καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς τὸν προφήτην τὸν ἐπιστρέψαντα αὐτόν·
Hebrew (WLC)
וַיְהִ֕י הֵ֥ם יֹשְׁבִ֖ים אֶל הַשֻּׁלְחָ֑ן וַֽיְהִי֙ דְּבַר יְהוָ֔ה אֶל הַנָּבִ֖יא אֲשֶׁ֥ר הֱשִׁיבֽוֹ

Haydock's commentary

Table. After this the Masorets place a piska, or circle, to denote some omission, which the Syriac version alone supplies; "and did eat." (Kennicott)

Back. Some translate, "whom he had brought back." (Junius; Syriac, &c.)

This would destroy the principal proof of those who esteem the man of Bethel to have been a true prophet. (Calmet)

Protestants agree with us; and the context seems to assert, that God addressed his servant by another's mouth. (Haydock)
