1 Kings 21:8-13
8Then Jezebel wroteH3789 lettersH5612 in Ahab’sH256 nameH8034, sealed themH2368 with his sealH2856, and sentH7971 them toH413 the eldersH2205H413 and noblesH2715 whoH834 livedH3427 withH854 NabothH5022 in his cityH5892. 9In the lettersH5612H559 she wroteH3789:
“ProclaimH7121 a fastH6685 and giveH3427 NabothH5022 a seat of honorH7218 among the peopleH5971. 10But seatH3427 twoH8147H582H1121 scoundrelsH1100 opposite himH5048 and have them testifyH5749H559, ‘You have cursedH1288 both GodH430 and the kingH4428!’ Then take him outH3318 and stone himH5619 to deathH4191.”
So the eldersH2205 and noblesH2715 whoH834 livedH3427 in Naboth’s cityH5892 didH6213 asH834 JezebelH348 had instructedH7971 in the lettersH5612 she had writtenH7971 to themH413. 12They proclaimedH7121 a fastH6685 and gaveH3427 NabothH5022 a seat of honorH7218 among the peopleH5971.
13And the twoH8147 scoundrelsH1100H582H1121 came inH935 and satH3427 oppositeH5048 Naboth, andH1100 these men testifiedH5749 againstH5022 him beforeH5048 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, “NabothH5022 has cursedH1288 both GodH430 and the kingH4428!”
So they took himH3318 outsideH2351 the cityH5892 and stoned himH5619 to deathH4191.
