- It happened after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.
- Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, "Give me your vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near to my house; and I will give you for it a better vineyard than it. Or, if it seems good to you, I will give you its worth in money."
- Naboth said to Ahab, "May Yahweh forbid me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to you!"
- Ahab came into his house sullen and angry because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him; for he had said, "I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers." He laid himself down on his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.
- But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said to him, "Why is your spirit so sad, that you eat no bread?"
- He said to her, "Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite, and said to him, 'Give me your vineyard for money; or else, if it pleases you, I will give you another vineyard for it.' He answered, 'I will not give you my vineyard.'"
- Jezebel his wife said to him, "Do you now govern the kingdom of Israel? Arise, and eat bread, and let your heart be merry. I will give you the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite."
- So she wrote letters in Ahab's name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters to the elders and to the nobles who were in his city, who lived with Naboth.
- She wrote in the letters, saying, "Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
- Set two men, base fellows, before him, and let them testify against him, saying, 'You cursed God and the king!' Then carry him out, and stone him to death."
- The men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezebel had sent to them, according as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them.
- They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
- The two men, the base fellows, came in and sat before him. The base fellows testified against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, "Naboth cursed God and the king!" Then they carried him out of the city, and stoned him to death with stones.
- Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, "Naboth has been stoned, and is dead."
- It happened, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, "Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give you for money; for Naboth is not alive, but dead."
- It happened, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.
- The word of Yahweh came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
- "Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who dwells in Samaria. Behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, where he has gone down to take possession of it.
- You shall speak to him, saying, 'Thus says Yahweh, "Have you killed and also taken possession?"' You shall speak to him, saying, 'Thus says Yahweh, "In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, dogs will lick your blood, even yours."'"
- Ahab said to Elijah, "Have you found me, my enemy?" He answered, "I have found you, because you have sold yourself to do that which is evil in the sight of Yahweh.
- Behold, I will bring evil on you, and will utterly sweep you away and will cut off from Ahab everyone who urinates against a wall, and him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel.
- I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah for the provocation with which you have provoked me to anger, and have made Israel to sin."
- Yahweh also spoke of Jezebel, saying, "The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the rampart of Jezreel.
- The dogs will eat he who dies of Ahab in the city; and the birds of the sky will eat he who dies in the field."
- But there was none like Ahab, who sold himself to do that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.
- He did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.
- It happened, when Ahab heard those words, that he tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.
- The word of Yahweh came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
- "See how Ahab humbles himself before me? Because he humbles himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days; but in his son's days will I bring the evil on his house."

- ויהי אחר הדברים האלה כרם היה לנבות היזרעאלי אשר ביזרעאל אצל היכל אחאב מלך שמרון׃
- וידבר אחאב אל־נבות לאמר תנה־לי את־כרמך ויהי־לי לגן־ירק כי הוא קרוב אצל ביתי ואתנה לך תחתיו כרם טוב ממנו אם טוב בעיניך אתנה־לך כסף מחיר זה׃
- ויאמר נבות אל־אחאב חלילה לי מיהוה מתתי את־נחלת אבתי לך׃
- ויבא אחאב אל־ביתו סר וזעף על־הדבר אשר־דבר אליו נבות היזרעאלי ויאמר לא־אתן לך את־נחלת אבותי וישכב על־מטתו ויסב את־פניו ולא־אכל לחם׃
- ותבא אליו איזבל אשתו ותדבר אליו מה־זה רוחך סרה ואינך אכל לחם׃
- וידבר אליה כי־אדבר אל־נבות היזרעאלי ואמר לו תנה־לי את־כרמך בכסף או אם־חפץ אתה אתנה־לך כרם תחתיו ויאמר לא־אתן לך את־כרמי׃
- ותאמר אליו איזבל אשתו אתה עתה תעשה מלוכה על־ישראל קום אכל־לחם ויטב לבך אני אתן לך את־כרם נבות היזרעאלי׃
- ותכתב ספרים בשם אחאב ותחתם בחתמו ותשלח אל־הזקנים ואל־החרים אשר בעירו הישבים את־נבות׃
- ותכתב בספרים לאמר קראו־צום והושיבו את־נבות בראש העם׃
- והושיבו שנים אנשים בני־בליעל נגדו ויעדהו לאמר ברכת אלהים ומלך והוציאהו וסקלהו וימת׃
- ויעשו אנשי עירו הזקנים והחרים אשר הישבים בעירו כאשר שלחה אליהם איזבל כאשר כתוב בספרים אשר שלחה אליהם׃
- קראו צום והשיבו את־נבות בראש העם׃
- ויבאו שני האנשים בני־בליעל וישבו נגדו ויעדהו אנשי הבליעל את־נבות נגד העם לאמר ברך נבות אלהים ומלך ויצאהו מחוץ לעיר ויסקלהו באבנים וימת׃
- וישלחו אל־איזבל לאמר סקל נבות וימת׃
- ויהי כשמע איזבל כי־סקל נבות וימת ותאמר איזבל אל־אחאב קום רש את־כרם נבות היזרעאלי אשר מאן לתת־לך בכסף כי אין נבות חי כי־מת׃
- ויהי כשמע אחאב כי מת נבות ויקם אחאב לרדת אל־כרם נבות היזרעאלי לרשתו׃ ס
- ויהי דבר־יהוה אל־אליהו התשבי לאמר׃
- קום רד לקראת אחאב מלך־ישראל אשר בשמרון הנה בכרם נבות אשר־ירד שם לרשתו׃
- ודברת אליו לאמר כה אמר יהוה הרצחת וגם־ירשת ודברת אליו לאמר כה אמר יהוה במקום אשר לקקו הכלבים את־דם נבות ילקו הכלבים את־דמך גם־אתה׃
- ויאמר אחאב אל־אליהו המצאתני איבי ויאמר מצאתי יען התמכרך לעשות הרע בעיני יהוה׃
- הנני אליך רעה ובערתי אחריך והכרתי לאחאב משתין בקיר ועצור ועזוב בישראל׃
- ונתתי את־ביתך כבית ירבעם בן־נבט וכבית בעשא בן־אחיה אל־הכעס אשר הכעסת ותחטא את־ישראל׃
- וגם־לאיזבל דבר יהוה לאמר הכלבים יאכלו את־איזבל בחל יזרעאל׃
- המת לאחאב בעיר יאכלו הכלבים והמת בשדה יאכלו עוף השמים׃
- רק לא־היה כאחאב אשר התמכר לעשות הרע בעיני יהוה אשר־הסתה אתו איזבל אשתו׃
- ויתעב מאד ללכת אחרי הגללים ככל אשר עשו האמרי אשר הוריש יהוה מפני בני ישראל׃ ס
- ויהי כשמע אחאב את־הדברים האלה ויקרע בגדיו וישם־שק על־בשרו ויצום וישכב בשק ויהלך אט׃ ס
- ויהי דבר־יהוה אל־אליהו התשבי לאמר׃
- הראית כי־נכנע אחאב מלפני יען כי־נכנע מפני לא־ הרעה בימיו בימי בנו אביא הרעה על־ביתו׃

- Post verba autem hæc, tempore illo vinea erat Naboth Jezrahelitæ, quæ erat in Jezrahel, juxta palatium Achab regis Samariæ.
- Locutus est ergo Achab ad Naboth, dicens : Da mihi vineam tuam, ut faciam mihi hortum olearum, quia vicina est, et prope domum meam, daboque tibi pro ea vineam meliorem : aut si commodius tibi putas, argenti pretium, quanto digna est.
- Cui respondit Naboth : Propitius sit mihi Dominus, ne dem hæreditatem patrum meorum tibi.
- Venit ergo Achab in domum suam indignans, et frendens super verbo, quod locutus fuerat ad eum Naboth Jezrahelites, dicens : Non dabo tibi hæreditatem patrum meorum. Et projiciens se in lectulum suum, avertit faciem suam ad parietem, et non comedit panem.
- Ingressa est autem ad eum Jezabel uxor sua, dixitque ei : Quid est hoc, unde anima tua contristata est ? et quare non comedis panem ?
- Qui respondit ei : Locutus sum Naboth Jezrahelitæ, et dixi ei : Da mihi vineam tuam, accepta pecunia : aut, si tibi placet, dabo tibi vineam meliorem pro ea. Et ille ait : Non dabo tibi vineam meam.
- Dixit ergo ad eum Jezabel uxor ejus : Grandis auctoritatis es, et bene regis regnum Israël. Surge, et comede panem, et æquo animo esto, ego dabo tibi vineam Naboth Jezrahelitæ.
- Scripsit itaque litteras ex nomine Achab, et signavit eas annulo ejus, et misit ad majores natu, et optimates, qui erant in civitate ejus, et habitabant cum Naboth.
- Litterarum autem hæc erat sententia : Prædicate jejunium, et sedere facite Naboth inter primos populi,
- et submittite duos viros filios Belial contra eum, et falsum testimonium dicant : Benedixit Deum et regem : et educite eum, et lapidate, sicque moriatur.
- Fecerunt ergo cives ejus majores natu et optimates, qui habitabant cum eo in urbe, sicut præceperat eis Jezabel, et sicut scriptum erat in litteris quas miserat ad eos :
- prædicaverunt jejunium, et sedere fecerunt Naboth inter primos populi.
- Et adductis duobus viris filiis diaboli, fecerunt eos sedere contra eum : at illi, scilicet ut viri diabolici, dixerunt contra eum testimonium coram multitudine : Benedixit Naboth Deum et regem : quam ob rem eduxerunt eum extra civitatem, et lapidibus interfecerunt.
- Miseruntque ad Jezabel, dicentes : Lapidatus est Naboth, et mortuus est.
- Factum est autem, cum audisset Jezabel lapidatum Naboth, et mortuum, locuta est ad Achab : Surge, et posside vineam Naboth Jezrahelitæ, qui noluit tibi acquiescere, et dare eam accepta pecunia : non enim vivit Naboth, sed mortuus est.
- Quod cum audisset Achab, mortuum videlicet Naboth, surrexit, et descendebat in vineam Naboth Jezrahelitæ, ut possideret eam.
- Factum est igitur sermo Domini ad Eliam Thesbiten, dicens :
- Surge, et descende in occursum Achab regis Israël, qui est in Samaria : ecce ad vineam Naboth descendit, ut possideat eam :
- et loqueris ad eum, dicens : Hæc dicit Dominus : Occidisti, insuper et possedisti. Et post hæc addes : Hæc dicit Dominus : In loco hoc, in quo linxerunt canes sanguinem Naboth, lambent quoque sanguinem tuum.
- Et ait Achab ad Eliam : Num invenisti me inimicum tibi ? Qui dixit : Inveni, eo quod venundatus sis, ut faceres malum in conspectu Domini.
- Ecce ego inducam super te malum, et demetam posteriora tua, et interficiam de Achab mingentem ad parietem, et clausum et ultimum in Israël.
- Et dabo domum tuam sicut domum Jeroboam filii Nabat, et sicut domum Baasa filii Ahia : quia egisti, ut me ad iracundiam provocares, et peccare fecisti Israël.
- Sed et de Jezabel locutus est Dominus, dicens : Canes comedent Jezabel in agro Jezrahel.
- Si mortuus fuerit Achab in civitate, comedent eum canes : si autem mortuus fuerit in agro, comedent eum volucres cæli.
- Igitur non fuit alter talis sicut Achab, qui venundatus est ut faceret malum in conspectu Domini : concitavit enim eum Jezabel uxor sua,
- et abominabilis factus est, in tantum ut sequeretur idola, quæ fecerant Amorrhæi, quos consumpsit Dominus a facie filiorum Israël.
- Itaque cum audisset Achab sermones istos, scidit vestimenta sua, et operuit cilicio carnem suam, jejunavitque et dormivit in sacco, et ambulavit demisso capite.
- Et factus est sermo Domini ad Eliam Thesbiten, dicens :
- Nonne vidisti humiliatum Achab coram me ? quia igitur humiliatus est mei causa, non inducam malum in diebus ejus, sed in diebus filii sui inferam malum domui ejus.

- And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.
- And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.
- And Naboth said to Ahab, The LORD forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee.
- And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.
- But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said unto him, Why is thy spirit so sad, that thou eatest no bread?
- And he said unto her, Because I spake unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee another vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard.
- And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, and eat bread, and let thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.
- So she wrote letters in Ahab's name, and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that were in his city, dwelling with Naboth.
- And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:
- And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.
- And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them.
- They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
- And there came in two men, children of Belial, and sat before him: and the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.
- Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
- And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned, and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
- And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.
- And the word of the LORD came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
- Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, which is in Samaria: behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he is gone down to possess it.
- And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, Hast thou killed, and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine.
- And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee: because thou hast sold thyself to work evil in the sight of the LORD.
- Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will take away thy posterity, and will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel,
- And will make thine house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin.
- And of Jezebel also spake the LORD, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.
- Him that dieth of Ahab in the city the dogs shall eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat.
- But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.
- And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all things as did the Amorites, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
- And it came to pass, when Ahab heard those words, that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.
- And the word of the LORD came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
- Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself before me? because he humbleth himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days: but in his son's days will I bring the evil upon his house.
