1 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS after H310 ADV these H428 D-DPRO-3MP things H1697 AMP , that Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158 had H1961 VQQ3MS a vineyard H3754 , which H834 RPRO was in Jezreel H3157 , hard H681 by the palace H1964 CMS of Ahab H256 king H4428 NMS of Samaria H8111 .
2 And Ahab H256 spoke H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP Naboth H5022 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Give H5414 UNKN me thy vineyard H3754 , that I may have H1961 it for a garden H1588 L-CMS of herbs H3419 , because H3588 CONJ it H1931 PPRO-3MS is near unto H7138 AMS my house H1004 CMS-1MS : and I will give H5414 UNKN thee for H8478 PREP-3MS it a better H2896 AMS vineyard H3754 than H4480 M-PREP-3MS it ; or , if H518 PART it seem good to thee H2895 , I will give H5414 UNKN thee the worth H4242 of it H2088 in money H3701 .
3 And Naboth H5022 said H559 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Ahab H256 , The LORD H3068 forbid H2486 IJEC-3FS it me , that I should give H5414 the inheritance H5159 of my fathers H1 unto thee .
4 And Ahab H256 came H935 W-VQY3MS into H413 PREP his house H1004 NMS-3MS heavy H5620 and displeased H2198 because H5921 PREP of the word H1697 D-NMS which H834 RPRO Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158 had spoken H1696 VPQ3MS to H413 PREP-3MS him : for he had said H559 W-VQY3MS , I will not H3808 ADV give H5414 VQY1MS thee the inheritance H5159 of my fathers H1 . And he laid him down H7901 W-VQY3MS upon H5921 PREP his bed H4296 , and turned away H5437 his face H6440 CMP-3MS , and would eat H398 VQQ3MS no H3808 ADV bread H3899 NMS .
5 But Jezebel H348 his wife H802 CFS-3MS came H935 W-VQY3FS to H413 PREP-3MS him , and said H1696 unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Why H4100 IPRO is thy spirit H7307 so sad H5620 , that thou eatest H398 no H369 bread H3899 NMS ?
6 And he said H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP her , Because H3588 CONJ I spoke H1696 VPY1MS unto H413 PREP Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Give H5414 me thy vineyard H3754 for money H3701 ; or H176 CONJ else , if H518 PART it please H2654 thee H859 PPRO-2MS , I will give H5414 thee another vineyard H3754 for H8478 PREP-3MS it : and he answered H559 W-VQY3MS , I will not H3808 ADV give H5414 VQY1MS thee my vineyard H3754 .
7 And Jezebel H348 his wife H802 CFS-3MS said H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Dost thou H859 PPRO-2MS now H6258 ADV govern H6213 VQY2MS the kingdom H4410 of Israel H3478 ? arise H6965 VQI2MS , and eat H398 bread H3899 NMS , and let thine heart H3820 CMS-2MS be merry H3190 : I H589 PPRO-1MS will give H5414 VQY1MS thee the vineyard H3754 of Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158 .
8 So she wrote H3789 letters H5612 in Ahab H256 \'s name H8034 B-CMS , and sealed H2856 them with his seal H2368 , and sent H7971 the letters H5612 unto H413 PREP the elders H2205 and to H413 PREP the nobles H2715 that H834 RPRO were in his city H5892 , dwelling H3427 with H854 PREP Naboth H5022 .
9 And she wrote H3789 in the letters H5612 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Proclaim H7121 a fast H6685 NMS , and set H3427 Naboth H5022 on high H7218 B-NMS among the people H5971 D-NMS :
10 And set H3427 two H8147 ONUM men H376 , sons H1121 of Belial H1100 , before H5048 PREP-3MS him , to bear witness against H5749 him , saying H559 L-VQFC , Thou didst blaspheme H1288 VPQ2MS God H430 EDP and the king H4428 . And then carry him out H3318 , and stone H5619 him , that he may die H4191 .
11 And the men H376 CMP of his city H5892 , even the elders H2205 and the nobles H2715 who H834 RPRO were the inhabitants H3427 in his city H5892 , did H6213 W-VQY3MP as H834 RPRO Jezebel H348 had sent H7971 unto H413 PREP-3MP them , and as H834 RPRO it was written H3789 in the letters H5612 which H834 RPRO she had sent H7971 unto H413 them .
12 They proclaimed H7121 a fast H6685 NMS , and set H3427 Naboth H5022 on high H7218 B-NMS among the people H5971 D-NMS .
13 And there came in H935 W-VQY3MP two H8147 ONUM men H376 D-NMP , children H1121 of Belial H1100 , and sat H3427 W-VQY3MP before H5048 PREP-3MS him : and the men H376 CMP of Belial H1100 witnessed against H5749 him , even against Naboth H5022 , in the presence H5048 of the people H5971 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Naboth H5022 did blaspheme H1288 VPQ3MS God H430 EDP and the king H4428 . Then they carried him forth H3318 out of the city H5892 L-NMS , and stoned H5619 him with stones H68 , that he died H4191 W-VQY3MS .
14 Then they sent H7971 to H413 PREP Jezebel H348 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Naboth H5022 is stoned H5619 , and is dead H4191 W-VQY3MS .
15 And it came to pass H1961 W-VPY3MS , when Jezebel H348 heard H8085 that H3588 CONJ Naboth H5022 was stoned H5619 , and was dead H4191 , that Jezebel H348 said H559 W-VQY3FS to H413 PREP Ahab H256 , Arise H6965 VQI2MS , take possession H3423 of the vineyard H3754 of Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158 , which H834 RPRO he refused H3985 to give H5414 thee for money H3701 : for H3588 CONJ Naboth H5022 is not H369 NPAR alive H2416 AMS , but H3588 CONJ dead H4191 .
16 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when Ahab H256 heard H8085 that H3588 CONJ Naboth H5022 was dead H4191 , that Ahab H256 rose up H6965 W-VQY3MS to go down H3381 to H413 PREP the vineyard H3754 of Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158 , to take possession H3423 of it .
17 And the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Elijah H452 the Tishbite H8664 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
18 Arise H6965 VQI2MS , go down H3381 to meet H7121 Ahab H256 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 , which H834 RPRO is in Samaria H8111 : behold H2009 IJEC , he is in the vineyard H3754 of Naboth H5022 , whither H834 RPRO he is gone down H3381 VQQ3MS to possess H3423 it .
19 And thou shalt speak H1696 unto H413 PREP-3MS him , saying H559 L-VQFC , Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS , Hast thou killed H7523 , and also H1571 W-CONJ taken possession H3423 ? And thou shalt speak H1696 unto H413 PREP-3MS him , saying H559 L-VQFC , Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS , In the place H4725 B-CMS where H834 RPRO dogs H3611 licked H3952 the blood H1818 CMS of Naboth H5022 shall dogs H3611 lick H3952 thy blood H1818 , even H1571 CONJ thine H859 PPRO-2MS .
20 And Ahab H256 said H559 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Elijah H452 , Hast thou found H4672 me , O mine enemy H341 VQCMS-1MS ? And he answered H559 W-VQY3MS , I have found H4672 VQQ1MS thee : because H3282 ADV thou hast sold H4376 thyself to work H6213 L-VQFC evil H7451 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
21 Behold H2009 , I will bring H935 evil H7451 AFS upon H413 PREP-2MS 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 ,
22 And will make H5414 thine house H1004 CMS-2MS like the house H1004 of Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 CMS of Nebat H5028 , and like the house H1004 of Baasha H1201 the son H1121 CMS of Ahijah H281 , for H413 PREP the provocation H3708 wherewith H834 RPRO thou hast provoked me to anger H3707 , and made Israel to sin H2398 .
23 And of Jezebel H348 also H1571 W-CONJ spoke H1696 VPQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS , saying H559 L-VQFC , The dogs H3611 shall eat H398 Jezebel H348 by the wall H2426 of Jezreel H3157 .
24 Him that dieth H4191 of Ahab H256 in the city H5892 BD-NFS the dogs H3611 shall eat H398 ; and him that dieth H4191 in the field H7704 B-NMS shall the fowls H5775 NMS of the air H8064 D-AMD eat H398 .
25 But H7535 ADV there was H1961 VQQ3MS none H3808 ADV like unto Ahab H256 , which H834 RPRO did sell himself H4376 to work H6213 L-VQFC wickedness H7451 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , whom H834 RPRO Jezebel H348 his wife H802 stirred up H5496 .
26 And he did very H3966 ADV abominably H8581 in following H1980 L-VQFC idols H1544 , according to all H3605 K-NMS things as H834 RPRO did H6213 VQQ3MP the Amorites H567 D-TMS , whom H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS cast out H3423 before H6440 M-CMP the children H1121 of Israel H3478 LMS .
27 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when Ahab H256 heard H8085 those H428 D-DPRO-3MP words H1697 AMP , that he rent H7167 W-VQY3MS his clothes H899 , and put H7760 sackcloth H8242 NMS upon H5921 PREP his flesh H1320 CMS-3MS , and fasted H6684 , and lay H7901 W-VQY3MS in sackcloth H8242 , and went H1980 softly H328 .
28 And the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 W-VPY3MS to H413 PREP Elijah H452 the Tishbite H8664 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
29 Seest H7200 thou how H3588 CONJ Ahab H256 humbleth himself H3665 before H6440 me ? because H3282 ADV he humbleth himself H3665 before H6440 M-CMP-1MS me , I will not H3808 ADV bring H935 the evil H7451 in his days H3117 : but in his son H1121 \'s days H3117 B-CMP will I bring H935 the evil H7451 D-AFS upon H5921 PREP his house H1004 CMS-3MS .
