1 Kings 21:7-14

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>_.
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>_.
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}
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)_.
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.
They proclaimed
<07121> (8804)
a fast
<06685>_,
and set
<03427> (8689)
Naboth
<05022>
on high
<07218>
among the people
<05971>_.
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)_.
Then they sent
<07971> (8799)
to Jezebel
<0348>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Naboth
<05022>
is stoned
<05619> (8795)_,
and is dead
<04191> (8799)_.
