1 Kings 21:8-10
81So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters to 2the elders and to the nobles who were living with Naboth in his city. 9Now she had written in the letters, saying, “Proclaim a fast and seat Naboth at the head of the people; 10and seat two 3worthless men opposite him, and have them testify against him, saying, ‘4You 5cursed God and the king.’ Then take him out and 6stone him 7to death.”
