21:5

But Jezebel
<0348>

his wife
<0802>

came
<0935> (8799)

to him, and said
<01696> (8762)

unto him, Why is thy spirit
<07307>

so sad
<05620>_,

that thou eatest
<0398> (8802)

no bread
<03899>_?

21:6

And he said
<01696> (8762)

unto her, Because I spake
<01696> (8762)

unto Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Give
<05414> (8798)

me thy vineyard
<03754>

for money
<03701>_;

or else, if it please
<02655>

thee, I will give
<05414> (8799)

thee [another] vineyard
<03754>

for it: and he answered
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not give
<05414> (8799)

thee my vineyard
<03754>_.

21:7

And Jezebel
<0348>

his wife
<0802>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Dost thou now govern
<06213> (8799)

the kingdom
<04410>

of Israel
<03478>_?

arise
<06965> (8798)_,

[and] eat
<0398> (8798)

bread
<03899>_,

and let thine heart
<03820>

be merry
<03190> (8799)_:

I will give
<05414> (8799)

thee the vineyard
<03754>

of Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_.

21:8

So she wrote
<03789> (8799)

letters
<05612>

in Ahab's
<0256>

name
<08034>_,

and sealed
<02856> (8799)

[them] with his seal
<02368>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

the letters
<05612>

unto the elders
<02205>

and to the nobles
<02715>

that [were] in his city
<05892>_,

dwelling
<03427> (8802)

with Naboth
<05022>_.

21:9

And she wrote
<03789> (8799)

in the letters
<05612>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Proclaim
<07121> (8798)

a fast
<06685>_,

and set
<03427> (8685)

Naboth
<05022>

on high
<07218>

among the people
<05971>_:

{on high...: Heb. in the top of the people}

21:10

And set
<03427> (8685)

two
<08147>

men
<0582>_,

sons
<01121>

of Belial
<01100>_,

before him, to bear witness
<05749> (8686)

against him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou didst blaspheme
<01288> (8765)

God
<0430>

and the king
<04428>_.

And [then] carry him out
<03318> (8689)_,

and stone
<05619> (8798)

him, that he may die
<04191> (8799)_.

21:11

And the men
<0582>

of his city
<05892>_,

[even] the elders
<02205>

and the nobles
<02715>

who were the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

in his city
<05892>_,

did
<06213> (8799)

as Jezebel
<0348>

had sent
<07971> (8804)

unto them, [and] as it [was] written
<03789> (8803)

in the letters
<05612>

which she had sent
<07971> (8804)

unto them.

21:12

They proclaimed
<07121> (8804)

a fast
<06685>_,

and set
<03427> (8689)

Naboth
<05022>

on high
<07218>

among the people
<05971>_.

21:13

And there came
<0935> (8799)

in two
<08147>

men
<0582>_,

children
<01121>

of Belial
<01100>_,

and sat
<03427> (8799)

before him: and the men
<0582>

of Belial
<01100>

witnessed
<05749> (8686)

against him, [even] against Naboth
<05022>_,

in the presence of the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Naboth
<05022>

did blaspheme
<01288> (8765)

God
<0430>

and the king
<04428>_.

Then they carried him forth
<03318> (8686)

out
<02351>

of the city
<05892>_,

and stoned
<05619> (8799)

him with stones
<068>_,

that he died
<04191> (8799)_.

21:14

Then they sent
<07971> (8799)

to Jezebel
<0348>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Naboth
<05022>

is stoned
<05619> (8795)_,

and is dead
<04191> (8799)_.

21:15

And it came to pass, when Jezebel
<0348>

heard
<08085> (8800)

that Naboth
<05022>

was stoned
<05619> (8795)_,

and was dead
<04191> (8799)_,

that Jezebel
<0348>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Ahab
<0256>_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

take possession
<03423> (8798)

of the vineyard
<03754>

of Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_,

which he refused
<03985> (8765)

to give
<05414> (8800)

thee for money
<03701>_:

for Naboth
<05022>

is not alive
<02416>_,

but dead
<04191> (8804)_.

1 Kings 21:25

21:25

But there was none like unto Ahab
<0256>_,

which did sell
<04376> (8694)

himself to work
<06213> (8800)

wickedness
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

whom Jezebel
<0348>

his wife
<0802>

stirred up
<05496> (8689)_.
