1 Kings 21:1-4

1Now it came about after these things that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard which was in 1Jezreel beside the palace of Ahab king of Samaria. 2Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, “2Give me your vineyard, that I may have it for a vegetable garden because it is close beside my house, and I will give you a better vineyard than it in its place; if 3you like, I will give you the price of 4it in money.” 3But Naboth said to Ahab, “The Lord forbid me 5that I should give you the inheritance of my fathers.” 46So Ahab came into his house sullen and vexed because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him; for he said, “I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers.” And he lay down on his bed and turned away his face and ate no 7food.
