Darby Translation 1890

1 Kings 21:9-15 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

9. And she wrote in the letter saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth at the head of the people;

10. and set two men, sons of Belial, before him, and they shall bear witness against him saying, Thou didst curse God and the king; and carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.

11. And the men of his city, the elders and the nobles that dwelt in his city, did as Jezebel had sent to them, as it was written in the letter that she had sent to them:

12. they proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth at the head of the people.

13. And there came the two men, sons of Belial, and sat before him; and the men of Belial witnessed against him, against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth blasphemed God and the king. And they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.

14. And they sent to Jezebel saying, Naboth is stoned, and is dead.

15. 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 Jizreelite, which he refused to give thee for money; for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
