1 Kings 21:1-7
1And it came to pass after these thingsH1697, [that] NabothH5022 the Jizreelite had a vineyardH3754, which wasH1961 in Jizreel, by the side of the palaceH1964 of AhabH256 kingH4428 of SamariaH8111.
2And AhabH256 spokeH1696 to NabothH5022 sayingH559, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754, that I may have it for a gardenH1588 of herbs, for it is near, by the side of my houseH1004; and I will giveH5414 thee for it a betterH2896 vineyardH3754 than it; if it seem goodH2896 to thee, I will giveH5414 thee its value in moneyH3701.
3And NabothH5022 saidH559 to AhabH256, Jehovah forbid it me, that I should giveH5414 the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1 to thee!
4And AhabH256 cameH935 into his houseH1004 sullenH5620 and vexed because of the wordH1697 that NabothH5022 the Jizreelite had spokenH1696 to him; for he had saidH559, I will not giveH5414 thee the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1. And he layH7901 downH7901 on his bedH4296, and turnedH5437 awayH5437 his faceH6440, and ateH398 no breadH3899.
5And JezebelH348 his wifeH802 cameH935 to him, and saidH1696 to him, WhyH4100 is thy spiritH7307 sullenH5620, and thou eatest no breadH3899?
6And he saidH559 to her, Because I spokeH1696 to NabothH5022 the Jizreelite and saidH559 to him, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754 for moneyH3701; or else, if it please thee, I will giveH5414 thee a vineyardH3754 for it; and he saidH559, I will not giveH5414 thee my vineyardH3754.
7And JezebelH348 his wifeH802 saidH559 to him, Dost thou nowH6258 exercise sovereignty over IsraelH3478? ariseH6965, eatH398 breadH3899, and let thy heartH3820 be glad: I will giveH5414 thee the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the Jizreelite.
