21:2 And Ahab [H256] spake [H1696] unto Naboth [H5022] , saying [H559] , Give [H5414] me thy vineyard [H3754] , that I may have it for a garden [H1588] of herbs [H3419] , because it [is] near [H7138] unto [H681] my house [H1004] : and I will give [H5414] thee for it a better [H2896] vineyard [H3754] than it; [or], if it seem good [H2896] to thee [H5869] , I will give [H5414] thee the worth [H4242] of it in money [H3701] .(seem: Heb. be good in thine eyes)
21:3 And Naboth [H5022] said [H559] to Ahab [H256] , The LORD [H3068] forbid [H2486] it me, that I should give [H5414] the inheritance [H5159] of my fathers [H1] unto thee.
21:4 And Ahab [H256] came [H935] into his house [H1004] heavy [H5620] and displeased [H2198] because of the word [H1697] which Naboth [H5022] the Jezreelite [H3158] had spoken [H1696] to him: for he had said [H559] , I will not give [H5414] thee the inheritance [H5159] of my fathers [H1] . And he laid him down [H7901] upon his bed [H4296] , and turned away [H5437] his face [H6440] , and would eat [H398] no bread [H3899] .
21:5 But Jezebel [H348] his wife [H802] came [H935] to him, and said [H1696] unto him, Why is thy spirit [H7307] so sad [H5620] , that thou eatest [H398] no bread [H3899] ?
21:6 And he said [H1696] unto her, Because I spake [H1696] unto Naboth [H5022] the Jezreelite [H3158] , and said [H559] unto him, Give [H5414] me thy vineyard [H3754] for money [H3701] ; or else, if it please [H2655] thee, I will give [H5414] thee [another] vineyard [H3754] for it: and he answered [H559] , I will not give [H5414] thee my vineyard [H3754] .
21:7 And Jezebel [H348] his wife [H802] said [H559] unto him, Dost thou now govern [H6213] the kingdom [H4410] of Israel [H3478] ? arise [H6965] , [and] eat [H398] bread [H3899] , and let thine heart [H3820] be merry [H3190] : I will give [H5414] thee the vineyard [H3754] of Naboth [H5022] the Jezreelite [H3158] .
21:8 So she wrote [H3789] letters [H5612] in Ahab's [H256] name [H8034] , and sealed [H2856] [them] with his seal [H2368] , and sent [H7971] the letters [H5612] unto the elders [H2205] and to the nobles [H2715] that [were] in his city [H5892] , dwelling [H3427] with Naboth [H5022] .
21:9 And she wrote [H3789] in the letters [H5612] , saying [H559] , Proclaim [H7121] a fast [H6685] , and set [H3427] Naboth [H5022] on high [H7218] among the people [H5971] :(on high: Heb. in the top of the people)
21:10 And set [H3427] two [H8147] men [H582] , sons [H1121] of Belial [H1100] , before him, to bear witness [H5749] against him, saying [H559] , Thou didst blaspheme [H1288] God [H430] and the king [H4428] . And [then] carry him out [H3318] , and stone [H5619] him, that he may die [H4191] .
21:11 And the men [H582] of his city [H5892] , [even] the elders [H2205] and the nobles [H2715] who were the inhabitants [H3427] in his city [H5892] , did [H6213] as Jezebel [H348] had sent [H7971] unto them, [and] as it [was] written [H3789] in the letters [H5612] which she had sent [H7971] unto them.
21:12 They proclaimed [H7121] a fast [H6685] , and set [H3427] Naboth [H5022] on high [H7218] among the people [H5971] .
21:13 And there came [H935] in two [H8147] men [H582] , children [H1121] of Belial [H1100] , and sat [H3427] before him: and the men [H582] of Belial [H1100] witnessed [H5749] against him, [even] against Naboth [H5022] , in the presence of the people [H5971] , saying [H559] , Naboth [H5022] did blaspheme [H1288] God [H430] and the king [H4428] . Then they carried him forth [H3318] out [H2351] of the city [H5892] , and stoned [H5619] him with stones [H68] , that he died [H4191] .
21:14 Then they sent [H7971] to Jezebel [H348] , saying [H559] , Naboth [H5022] is stoned [H5619] , and is dead [H4191] .
21:15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel [H348] heard [H8085] that Naboth [H5022] was stoned [H5619] , and was dead [H4191] , that Jezebel [H348] said [H559] to Ahab [H256] , Arise [H6965] , take possession [H3423] of the vineyard [H3754] of Naboth [H5022] the Jezreelite [H3158] , which he refused [H3985] to give [H5414] thee for money [H3701] : for Naboth [H5022] is not alive [H2416] , but dead [H4191] .
21:16 And it came to pass, when Ahab [H256] heard [H8085] that Naboth [H5022] was dead [H4191] , that Ahab [H256] rose up [H6965] to go down [H3381] to the vineyard [H3754] of Naboth [H5022] the Jezreelite [H3158] , to take possession [H3423] of it.
21:17 And the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] came to Elijah [H452] the Tishbite [H8664] , saying [H559] ,
21:18 Arise [H6965] , go down [H3381] to meet [H7125] Ahab [H256] king [H4428] of Israel [H3478] , which [is] in Samaria [H8111] : behold, [he is] in the vineyard [H3754] of Naboth [H5022] , whither he is gone down [H3381] to possess [H3423] it.
21:19 And thou shalt speak [H1696] unto him, saying [H559] , Thus saith [H559] the LORD [H3068] , Hast thou killed [H7523] , and also taken possession [H3423] ? And thou shalt speak [H1696] unto him, saying [H559] , Thus saith [H559] the LORD [H3068] , In the place [H4725] where dogs [H3611] licked [H3952] the blood [H1818] of Naboth [H5022] shall dogs [H3611] lick [H3952] thy blood [H1818] , even thine.
21:20 And Ahab [H256] said [H559] to Elijah [H452] , Hast thou found [H4672] me, O mine enemy [H341] ? And he answered [H559] , I have found [H4672] [thee]: because thou hast sold [H4376] thyself to work [H6213] evil [H7451] in the sight [H5869] of the LORD [H3068] .
21:21 Behold, I will bring [H935] evil [H7451] upon thee, and will take away [H1197] thy posterity [H310] , and will cut off [H3772] from Ahab [H256] him that pisseth [H8366] against the wall [H7023] , and him that is shut up [H6113] and left [H5800] in Israel [H3478] ,
21:22 And will make [H5414] thine house [H1004] like the house [H1004] of Jeroboam [H3379] the son [H1121] of Nebat [H5028] , and like the house [H1004] of Baasha [H1201] the son [H1121] of Ahijah [H281] , for the provocation [H3708] wherewith thou hast provoked [me] to anger [H3707] , and made Israel [H3478] to sin [H2398] .
21:23 And of Jezebel [H348] also spake [H1696] the LORD [H3068] , saying [H559] , The dogs [H3611] shall eat [H398] Jezebel [H348] by the wall [H2426] of Jezreel [H3157] .(wall: or, ditch)
21:24 Him that dieth [H4191] of Ahab [H256] in the city [H5892] the dogs [H3611] shall eat [H398] ; and him that dieth [H4191] in the field [H7704] shall the fowls [H5775] of the air [H8064] eat [H398] .
21:25 But there was none like unto Ahab [H256] , which did sell [H4376] himself to work [H6213] wickedness [H7451] in the sight [H5869] of the LORD [H3068] , whom Jezebel [H348] his wife [H802] stirred up [H5496] .(stirred: or, incited)
21:26 And he did very [H3966] abominably [H8581] in following [H3212] [H310] idols [H1544] , according to all [things] as did [H6213] the Amorites [H567] , whom the LORD [H3068] cast out [H3423] before [H6440] the children [H1121] of Israel [H3478] .
21:27 And it came to pass, when Ahab [H256] heard [H8085] those words [H1697] , that he rent [H7167] his clothes [H899] , and put [H7760] sackcloth [H8242] upon his flesh [H1320] , and fasted [H6684] , and lay [H7901] in sackcloth [H8242] , and went [H1980] softly [H328] .
21:28 And the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] came to Elijah [H452] the Tishbite [H8664] , saying [H559] ,
21:29 Seest [H7200] thou how Ahab [H256] humbleth [H3665] himself before [H6440] me? because [H3282] he humbleth [H3665] himself before [H6440] me, I will not bring [H935] the evil [H7451] in his days [H3117] : [but] in his son's [H1121] days [H3117] will I bring [H935] the evil [H7451] upon his house [H1004] .
