1 Kings 21:10-14
Context21:10 Also seat two villains opposite him and have them testify, ‘You cursed God and the king.’ Then take him out and stone him to death.”
21:11 The men of the 1 city, the leaders 2 and the nobles who lived there, 3 followed the written orders Jezebel had sent them. 4 21:12 They observed a time of fasting and put Naboth in front of the people. 21:13 The two villains arrived and sat opposite him. Then the villains testified against Naboth right before the people, saying, “Naboth cursed God and the king.” So they dragged him 5 outside the city and stoned him to death. 6 21:14 Then they reported to Jezebel, “Naboth has been stoned to death.” 7
