1 Kings 21:20-23

20When ElijahH452 arrived, AhabH256 saidH559 to himH413, “So you have found me outH4672, my enemyH341.”

He repliedH559, “I have found you outH4672 becauseH3282 you have sold yourselfH4376 to doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068. 21This is what the LORD says:1

‘I will bringH935 calamityH7451 on youH413and consumeH1197 your descendantsH310;I will cut offH3772 from AhabH256 every maleH8366 in IsraelH3478,both slaveH6113 and freeH5800.22I will makeH5414 your houseH1004 like thatH1004 of JeroboamH3379 sonH1121 of NebatH5028and like thatH1004 of BaashaH1201 sonH1121 of AhijahH281,becauseH413 you have provokedH3707 My angerH3708and caused IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.’

23And the LORDH3068H559 alsoH1571 speaksH1696 concerning JezebelH348:

‘The dogsH3611 will devourH398 JezebelH348by the wallH2426 of JezreelH3157.’2
