1 Kings 21:5-10
5But JezebelH348 his wifeH802 cameH935 to him, and saidH1696 to him, Why is thy spiritH7307 so sadH5620, that thou eatestH398 no foodH3899? 6And he saidH1696 to her, Because I spokeH1696 to NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158, and saidH559 to him, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754 for moneyH3701; or else, if it pleasethH2655 thee, I will giveH5414 thee another vineyardH3754 for it: and he answeredH559, I will not giveH5414 thee my vineyardH3754. 7And JezebelH348 his wifeH802 saidH559 to him, Dost thou now governH6213 the kingdomH4410 of IsraelH3478? ariseH6965, and eatH398 foodH3899, and let thy heartH3820 be merryH3190: I will giveH5414 thee the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158. 8So she wroteH3789 lettersH5612 in Ahab’sH256 nameH8034, and sealedH2856 them with his sealH2368, and sentH7971 the lettersH5612 to the eldersH2205 and to the noblesH2715 that were in his cityH5892, dwellingH3427 with NabothH5022. 9And she wroteH3789 in the lettersH5612, sayingH559, ProclaimH7121 a fastH6685, and setH3427 NabothH5022 on highH7218 among the peopleH5971:1 10And setH3427 twoH8147 menH582, worthlessH1100 menH1121, before him, to bear witnessH5749 against him, sayingH559, Thou didst blasphemeH1288 GodH430 and the kingH4428. And then carry him outH3318, and stoneH5619 him, that he may dieH4191.
