1 Kings 21:17-27

And the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to Elijah
<0452>
the Tishbite
<08664>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
go down
<03381> (8798)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
Ahab
<0256>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which [is] in Samaria
<08111>_:
behold, [he is] in the vineyard
<03754>
of Naboth
<05022>_,
whither he is gone down
<03381> (8804)
to possess
<03423> (8800)
it.
And thou shalt speak
<01696> (8765)
unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Hast thou killed
<07523> (8804)_,
and also taken possession
<03423> (8804)_?
And thou shalt speak
<01696> (8765)
unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
In the place
<04725>
where dogs
<03611>
licked
<03952> (8804)
the blood
<01818>
of Naboth
<05022>
shall dogs
<03611>
lick
<03952> (8799)
thy blood
<01818>_,
even thine.
And Ahab
<0256>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Elijah
<0452>_,
Hast thou found
<04672> (8804)
me, O mine enemy
<0341> (8802)_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I have found
<04672> (8804)
[thee]: because thou hast sold
<04376> (8692)
thyself to work
<06213> (8800)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)
evil
<07451>
upon thee, and will take away
<01197> (8765)
thy posterity
<0310>_,
and will cut off
<03772> (8689)
from Ahab
<0256>
him that pisseth
<08366> (8688)
against the wall
<07023>_,
and him that is shut up
<06113> (8803)
and left
<05800> (8803)
in Israel
<03478>_,
And will make
<05414> (8804)
thine house
<01004>
like the house
<01004>
of Jeroboam
<03379>
the son
<01121>
of Nebat
<05028>_,
and like the house
<01004>
of Baasha
<01201>
the son
<01121>
of Ahijah
<0281>_,
for the provocation
<03708>
wherewith thou hast provoked [me] to anger
<03707> (8689)_,
and made Israel
<03478>
to sin
<02398> (8686)_.
And of Jezebel
<0348>
also spake
<01696> (8765)
the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The dogs
<03611>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)
Jezebel
<0348>
by the wall
<02426>
of Jezreel
<03157>_.
{wall: or, ditch}
Him that dieth
<04191> (8801)
of Ahab
<0256>
in the city
<05892>
the dogs
<03611>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)_;
and him that dieth
<04191> (8801)
in the field
<07704>
shall the fowls
<05775>
of the air
<08064>
eat
<0398> (8799)_.
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)_.
{stirred...: or, incited}
And he did very
<03966>
abominably
<08581> (8686)
in following
<03212> (8800) <0310>
idols
<01544>_,
according to all [things] as did
<06213> (8804)
the Amorites
<0567>_,
whom the LORD
<03068>
cast out
<03423> (8689)
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And it came to pass, when Ahab
<0256>
heard
<08085> (8800)
those words
<01697>_,
that he rent
<07167> (8799)
his clothes
<0899>_,
and put
<07760> (8799)
sackcloth
<08242>
upon his flesh
<01320>_,
and fasted
<06684> (8799)_,
and lay
<07901> (8799)
in sackcloth
<08242>_,
and went
<01980> (8762)
softly
<0328>_.
