New Living Translation

1 Kings 21:10-15 New Living Translation (NLT)

10. And then seat two scoundrels across from him who will accuse him of cursing God and the king. Then take him out and stone him to death.”

11. So the elders and other town leaders followed the instructions Jezebel had written in the letters.

12. They called for a fast and put Naboth at a prominent place before the people.

13. Then the two scoundrels came and sat down across from him. And they accused Naboth before all the people, saying, “He cursed God and the king.” So he was dragged outside the town and stoned to death.

14. The town leaders then sent word to Jezebel, “Naboth has been stoned to death.”

15. When Jezebel heard the news, she said to Ahab, “You know the vineyard Naboth wouldn’t sell you? Well, you can have it now! He’s dead!”
