1 Kings 21:1-7

1Now it cameH1961 about afterH310 theseH428 thingsH1697 that NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 hadH1961 a vineyardH3754 whichH834 was in 1JezreelH3157 besideH681 the palaceH1964 of AhabH256 kingH4428 of SamariaH8111. 2AhabH256 spokeH1696 to NabothH5022, sayingH559, “2GiveH5414 me your vineyardH3754, that I may haveH1961 it for a vegetableH3419 gardenH1588 becauseH3588 it is closeH7138 besideH681 my houseH1004, and I will giveH5414 you a betterH2896 vineyardH3754 thanH4480 it in its placeH8478; ifH518 3you likeH2896H5869, I will giveH5414 you the priceH4242 of 4it in moneyH3701.” 3But NabothH5022 saidH559 to AhabH256, “The LordH3068 forbidH2486 me 5that I should giveH5414 you the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1.” 46So AhabH256 cameH935 into his houseH1004 sullenH5620 and vexedH2198 becauseH5921 of the wordH1697 whichH834 NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 had spokenH1696 to him; for he saidH559, “I will not giveH5414 you the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1.” And he layH7901 downH7901 on his bedH4296 and turnedH5437 awayH5437 his faceH6440 and ateH398 noH3808 7foodH3899.

5But JezebelH348 his wifeH802 cameH935 to him and saidH1696 to him, “HowH4100 is it that your spiritH7307 is so sullenH5620 that you are not eatingH398 8foodH3899?” 6So he saidH1696 to her, “BecauseH3588 I spokeH1696 to NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 and saidH559 to him, ‘GiveH5414 me your vineyardH3754 for moneyH3701; orH176 else, ifH518 it pleasesH2655 you, I will giveH5414 you a vineyardH3754 in its placeH8478.’ But he saidH559, ‘I will not giveH5414 you my vineyardH3754.’” 7JezebelH348 his wifeH802 saidH559 to him, “9Do you nowH6258 10reignH6213H4410 overH5921 IsraelH3478? AriseH6965, eatH398 breadH3899, and let your heartH3820 be joyfulH3190; I will giveH5414 you the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158.”
