Chapter 21
And
it
came
to
passe
after
these
things,
that
Naboth
the
Iezreelite
had
a
vineyard,
which
was
in
Iezreel,
hard
by
the
palace
of
Ahab
king
of
Samaria.
2
And
Ahab
spake
vnto
Naboth,
saying,
Giue
me
thy
vineyard,
that
I
may
haue
it
for
a
garden
of
herbes,
because
it
is
neere
vnto
my
house,
and
I
will
giue
thee
for
it
a
better
vineyard
then
it:
or
if
it
seeme
good
to
thee,
I
will
giue
thee
the
worth
of
it
in
money.
3
And
Naboth
said
to
Ahab,
The
Lord
forbid
it
mee,
that
I
should
giue
the
inheritance
of
my
fathers
vnto
thee.
4
And
Ahab
came
into
his
house,
heauie,
and
displeased,
because
of
the
word
which
Naboth
the
Iezreelite
had
spoken
to
him:
for
he
had
saide,
I
will
not
giue
thee
the
inheritance
of
my
fathers:
and
he
laid
him
downe
vpon
his
bed,
and
turned
away
his
face,
and
would
eate
no
bread.
5
But
Iezebel
his
wife
came
to
him,
and
said
vnto
him,
Why
is
thy
spirit
so
sad,
that
thou
eatest
no
bread?
6
And
he
said
vnto
her,
Because
I
spake
vnto
Naboth
the
Iezreelite,
and
said
vnto
him,
Giue
mee
thy
vineyard
for
money,
or
else
if
it
please
thee,
I
will
giue
thee
another
vineyard
for
it:
And
he
answered,
I
wil
not
giue
thee
my
vineyard.
7
And
Iezebel
his
wife
saide
vnto
him,
Doest
thou
now
gouerne
the
kingdome
of
Israel?
Arise,
and
eate
bread,
and
let
thine
heart
bee
merrie:
I
will
giue
thee
the
vineyard
of
Naboth
the
Iezreelite.
8
So
shee
wrote
letters
in
Ahabs
name,
and
sealed
them
with
his
seale,
and
sent
the
letters
vnto
the
Elders,
and
to
the
Nobles
that
were
in
his
citie
dwelling
with
Naboth.
9
And
she
wrote
in
the
letters,
saying,
Proclaime
a
fast,
and
set
Naboth
on
high
among
the
people:
10
And
set
two
men,
sonnes
of
Belial
before
him,
to
beare
witnes
against
him,
saying,
Thou
diddest
blaspheme
God
and
the
king:
and
then
carie
him
out,
and
stone
him
that
he
may
die.
11
And
the
men
of
his
citie,
euen
the
Elders
and
the
Nobles
who
were
the
inhabitants
in
his
citie,
did
as
Iezebel
had
sent
vnto
them,
and
as
it
was
written
in
the
letters
which
she
had
sent
vnto
them.
12
They
proclaimed
a
fast,
and
set
Naboth
on
high
among
the
people.
13
And
there
came
in
two
men,
children
of
Belial,
and
sate
before
him:
and
the
men
of
Belial
witnessed
against
him,
euen
against
Naboth,
in
the
presence
of
the
people,
saying,
Naboth
did
blaspheme
God
and
the
king.
Then
they
caried
him
foorth
out
of
the
citie,
and
stoned
him
with
stones,
that
hee
died.
14
Then
they
sent
to
Iezebel,
saying,
Naboth
is
stoned,
and
is
dead.
15
And
it
came
to
passe
when
Iezebel
heard
that
Naboth
was
stoned
and
was
dead,
that
Iezebel
said
to
Ahab,
Arise,
take
possession
of
the
Uineyard
of
Naboth
the
Iezreelite,
which
hee
refused
to
giue
thee
for
money:
for
Naboth
is
not
aliue,
but
dead.
16
And
it
came
to
passe
when
Ahab
heard
that
Naboth
was
dead,
that
Ahab
rose
vp
to
goe
downe
to
the
Uineyard
of
Naboth
the
Iezreelite,
to
take
possession
of
it.
17
And
the
word
of
the
Lord
came
to
Eliiah
the
Tishbite,
saying,
18
Arise,
goe
downe
to
meet
Ahab
king
of
Israel,
which
is
in
Samaria:
behold,
hee
is
in
the
Uineyard
of
Naboth,
whither
he
is
gone
downe
to
possesse
it.
19
And
thou
shalt
speake
vnto
him,
saying,
Thus
saith
the
Lord,
Hast
thou
killed,
and
also
taken
possession?
And
thou
shalt
speake
vnto
him,
saying,
Thus
saith
the
Lord;
In
the
place
where
dogs
licked
the
blood
of
Naboth,
shall
dogges
licke
thy
blood,
euen
thine.
20
And
Ahab
said
to
Eliiah,
Hast
thou
found
me,
O
mine
enemie?
And
he
answered,
I
haue
found
thee:
because
thou
hast
sold
thy
selfe
to
worke
euill
in
the
sight
of
the
Lord.
21
Behold,
I
will
bring
euill
vpon
thee,
and
will
take
away
thy
posteritie,
and
will
cut
off
from
Ahab
him
that
pisseth
against
the
wall,
and
him
that
is
shut
vp,
and
left
in
Israel,
22
And
will
make
thine
house
like
the
house
of
Ieroboam
the
sonne
of
Nebat,
and
like
the
house
of
Baasha
the
sonne
of
Ahiiah,
for
the
prouocation
wherewith
thou
hast
prouoked
mee
to
anger,
and
made
Israel
to
sinne.
23
And
of
Iezebel
also
spake
the
Lord,
saying,
The
dogs
shall
eate
Iezebel
by
the
wall
of
Iezreel.
24
Him
that
dieth
of
Ahab
in
the
citie,
the
dogs
shall
eate:
and
him
that
dieth
in
the
field,
shall
the
foules
of
the
aire
eat.
25
But
there
was
none
like
vnto
Ahab,
which
did
sell
himselfe
to
worke
wickednesse
in
the
sight
of
the
Lord,
whom
Iezebel
his
wife
stirred
vp.
26
And
hee
did
very
abominably
in
following
Idoles,
according
to
all
things
as
did
the
Amorites,
whom
the
Lord
cast
out
before
the
children
of
Israel.
27
And
it
came
to
passe
when
Ahab
heard
those
wordes,
that
hee
rent
his
clothes,
and
put
sackecloth
vpon
his
flesh,
and
fasted,
and
lay
in
sackcloth,
and
went
softly.
28
And
the
word
of
the
Lord
came
to
Eliiah
the
Tishbite,
saying,
29
Seest
thou
how
Ahab
humbleth
himselfe
before
mee?
because
hee
humbleth
himselfe
before
mee,
I
will
not
bring
the
euill
in
his
dayes:
but
in
his
sonnes
dayes
will
I
bring
the
euill
vpon
his
house.
