15. Jezebel heard that Naboth had been killed. As soon as she heard it, she said to Ahab, "Get up. Take over the vineyard of Naboth from Jezreel. It's the one he wouldn't sell to you. He isn't alive anymore. He's dead."
16. Ahab heard that Naboth was dead. So he got up. He went down to take over Naboth's vineyard.
17. Then a message from the Lord came to Elijah, who was from Tishbe. It said,
18. "Go down to see Ahab, the king of Israel. He rules in Samaria. You will find him in Naboth's vineyard. He has gone there to take it over.
