1 Kings 21:24-29

241The one belonging to AhabH256, who diesH4191 in the cityH5892, the dogsH3611 will eatH398, and the one who diesH4191 in the fieldH7704 the birdsH5775 of heavenH8064 will eatH398.”

252SurelyH7534 there was noH3808 one like AhabH256 whoH834 soldH4376 himself to doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, 3becauseH834 JezebelH348 his wifeH802 incitedH5496 him. 264He actedH8581 veryH3966 abominablyH8581 in followingH1980H310 idolsH1544, 5according to allH3605 that the AmoritesH567 had doneH6213, whomH834 the LordH3068 castH3423 out beforeH4480H6440 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.

27It cameH1961 about when AhabH256 heardH8085 theseH428 wordsH1697, that 6he toreH7167 his clothesH899 and putH7760 7on sackclothH8242 and fastedH6684, and he layH7901 in sackclothH8242 and wentH1980 about 8despondentlyH328. 28Then the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to ElijahH452 the TishbiteH8664, sayingH559, 29“Do you seeH7200 howH3588 AhabH256 has humbledH3665 himself beforeH4480H6440 Me? BecauseH3282H3588 he has humbledH3665 himself beforeH4480H6440 Me, I will not bringH935 the evilH7463 in his daysH3117, but I will bringH935 the evilH7463 upon his houseH1004 9in his son’sH1121 daysH3117.”
