Holy Name King James Version (KJV)

1 Kings 21

1 Ahab being denied Naboth's vinyard is grieved. 5 Jezebel writing letters against Naboth, he is condemned of blasphemy. 15 Ahab taketh possession of the vinyard. 17 Elijah denounceth judgments against Ahab and Jezebel. 25 Wicked Ahab repenting, God deferreth the judgment.

 21:1 ¶ And it came to pass x1961 after 310 these x428 things, 1697 [that] Naboth 5022 the Jezreelite 3158 had x1961 a vineyard, 3754 which x834 [was] in Jezreel, 3157 hard x681 by y681 the palace 1964 of Ahab 256 king 4428 of Samaria. 8111

 21:2 And Ahab 256 spake 1696 z8762 unto x413 Naboth, 5022 saying, 559 z8800 Give 5414 z8798 me x853 thy vineyard, 3754 that I may have x1961 it for a garden 1588 of herbs, 3419 because x3588 it x1931 [is] near y7138 unto 681 x7138 my house: 1004 and I will give 5414 z8799 thee for x8478 it a better 2896 vineyard 3754 than x4480 it; [or], if x518 it seem good y2896 to thee, 5869 x2895 I will give 5414 z8799 thee the worth 4242 of it x2088 in money. 3701

 21:3 And Naboth 5022 said 559 z8799 to x413 Ahab, 256 Yahweh 3068 x4480 forbid 2486 it me, that I should give 5414 z8800 x4480 x853 the inheritance 5159 of my fathers 1 unto thee.

 21:4 And Ahab 256 came 935 z8799 into x413 his house 1004 heavy 5620 and displeased 2198 because x5921 of the word 1697 which x834 Naboth 5022 the Jezreelite 3158 had spoken 1696 z8765 to x413 him: for he had said, 559 z8799 I will not x3808 give 5414 z8799 thee x853 the inheritance 5159 of my fathers. 1 And he laid him down 7901 z8799 upon x5921 his bed, 4296 and turned away 5437 z8686 x853 his face, 6440 and would eat 398 z8804 no x3808 bread. 3899

 21:5 ¶ But Jezebel 348 his wife 802 came 935 z8799 to x413 him, and said 1696 z8762 unto x413 him, Why x4100 x2088 is thy spirit 7307 so sad, 5620 that thou eatest 398 z8802 no x369 bread? 3899

 21:6 And he said 1696 z8762 unto x413 her, Because x3588 I spake 1696 z8762 unto x413 Naboth 5022 the Jezreelite, 3158 and said 559 z8799 unto him, Give 5414 z8798 me x853 thy vineyard 3754 for money; 3701 or x176 else, if x518 it please y2655 x2654 thee, x859 I will give 5414 z8799 thee [another] vineyard 3754 for x8478 it: and he answered, 559 z8799 I will not x3808 give 5414 z8799 thee x853 my vineyard. 3754

 21:7 And Jezebel 348 his wife 802 said 559 z8799 unto x413 him, Dost thou x859 now x6258 govern 6213 z8799 x5921 the kingdom 4410 of Israel? 3478 arise, 6965 z8798 [and] eat 398 z8798 bread, 3899 and let thine heart 3820 be merry: 3190 z8799 I x589 will give 5414 z8799 thee x853 the vineyard 3754 of Naboth 5022 the Jezreelite. 3158

 21:8 So she wrote 3789 z8799 letters 5612 in Ahab's 256 name, 8034 and sealed 2856 z8799 [them] with his seal, 2368 and sent 7971 z8799 the letters 5612 unto x413 the elders 2205 and to x413 the nobles 2715 that x834 [were] in his city, 5892 dwelling 3427 z8802 with x854 Naboth. 5022

 21:9 And she wrote 3789 z8799 in the letters, 5612 saying, 559 z8800 Proclaim 7121 z8798 a fast, 6685 and set 3427 z8685 x853 Naboth 5022 on high 7218 among the people: 5971

 21:10 And set 3427 z8685 two 8147 men, y582 x376 sons 1121 of Belial, 1100 before x5048 him, to bear witness y5749 z8686 against x5749 him, saying, 559 z8800 Thou didst blaspheme 1288 z8765 Elohim 430 and the king. 4428 And [then] carry him out, 3318 z8689 and stone 5619 z8798 him, that he may die. 4191 z8799

 21:11 And the men y582 x376 of his city, 5892 [even] the elders 2205 and the nobles 2715 who x834 were the inhabitants 3427 z8802 in his city, 5892 did 6213 z8799 as x834 Jezebel 348 had sent 7971 z8804 unto x413 them, [and] as x834 it [was] written 3789 z8803 in the letters 5612 which x834 she had sent 7971 z8804 unto x413 them.

 21:12 They proclaimed 7121 z8804 a fast, 6685 and set 3427 z8689 x853 Naboth 5022 on high 7218 among the people. 5971

 21:13 And there came y935 z8799 in x935 two 8147 men, y582 x376 children 1121 of Belial, 1100 and sat 3427 z8799 before x5048 him: and the men y582 x376 of Belial 1100 witnessed y5749 z8686 against x5749 him, [even] against x853 Naboth, 5022 in the presence x5048 of the people, 5971 saying, 559 z8800 Naboth 5022 did blaspheme 1288 z8765 Elohim 430 and the king. 4428 Then they carried him forth 3318 z8686 out y2351 of x4480 x2351 the city, 5892 and stoned 5619 z8799 him with stones, 68 that he died. 4191 z8799

 21:14 Then they sent 7971 z8799 to x413 Jezebel, 348 saying, 559 z8800 Naboth 5022 is stoned, 5619 z8795 and is dead. 4191 z8799

 21:15 ¶ And it came to pass, x1961 when Jezebel 348 heard 8085 z8800 that x3588 Naboth 5022 was stoned, 5619 z8795 and was dead, 4191 z8799 that Jezebel 348 said 559 z8799 to x413 Ahab, 256 Arise, 6965 z8798 take possession 3423 z8798 of x853 the vineyard 3754 of Naboth 5022 the Jezreelite, 3158 which x834 he refused 3985 z8765 to give 5414 z8800 thee for money: 3701 for x3588 Naboth 5022 is not x369 alive, 2416 but x3588 dead. 4191 z8804

 21:16 And it came to pass, x1961 when Ahab 256 heard 8085 z8800 that x3588 Naboth 5022 was dead, 4191 z8804 that Ahab 256 rose up 6965 z8799 to go down 3381 z8800 to x413 the vineyard 3754 of Naboth 5022 the Jezreelite, 3158 to take possession 3423 z8800 of it.

 21:17 ¶ And the word 1697 of Yahweh 3068 came x1961 to x413 Elijah 452 the Tishbite, 8664 saying, 559 z8800

 21:18 Arise, 6965 z8798 go down 3381 z8798 to meet y7125 z8800 x7121 Ahab 256 king 4428 of Israel, 3478 which x834 [is] in Samaria: 8111 behold, x2009 [he is] in the vineyard 3754 of Naboth, 5022 whither x834 x8033 he is gone down 3381 z8804 to possess 3423 z8800 it.

 21:19 And thou shalt speak 1696 z8765 unto x413 him, saying, 559 z8800 Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 Yahweh, 3068 Hast thou killed, 7523 z8804 and also x1571 taken possession? 3423 z8804 And thou shalt speak 1696 z8765 unto x413 him, saying, 559 z8800 Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 Yahweh, 3068 In the place 4725 where x834 dogs 3611 licked 3952 z8804 x853 the blood 1818 of Naboth 5022 shall dogs 3611 lick 3952 z8799 x853 thy blood, 1818 even x1571 thine. x859

 21:20 And Ahab 256 said 559 z8799 to x413 Elijah, 452 Hast thou found 4672 z8804 me, O mine enemy? 341 z8802 And he answered, 559 z8799 I have found 4672 z8804 [thee]: because x3282 thou hast sold 4376 z8692 thyself to work 6213 z8800 evil 7451 in the sight 5869 of Yahweh. 3068

 21:21 Behold, x2009 I will bring 935 z8688 evil 7451 upon x413 thee, and will take away 1197 z8765 thy posterity, 310 and will cut off 3772 z8689 from Ahab 256 him that pisseth 8366 z8688 against the wall, 7023 and him that is shut up 6113 z8803 and left 5800 z8803 in Israel, 3478

 21:22 And will make 5414 z8804 x853 thine house 1004 like the house 1004 of Jeroboam 3379 the son 1121 of Nebat, 5028 and like the house 1004 of Baasha 1201 the son 1121 of Ahijah, 281 for x413 the provocation 3708 wherewith x834 thou hast provoked [me] to anger, 3707 z8689 and made Israel y3478 to sin. 2398 z8686 x853 x3478

 21:23 And of Jezebel 348 also x1571 spake 1696 z8765 Yahweh, 3068 saying, 559 z8800 The dogs 3611 shall eat 398 z8799 x853 Jezebel 348 by the wall 2426 of Jezreel. 3157

 21:24 Him that dieth 4191 z8801 of Ahab 256 in the city 5892 the dogs 3611 shall eat; 398 z8799 and him that dieth 4191 z8801 in the field 7704 shall the fowls 5775 of the air 8064 eat. 398 z8799

 21:25 ¶ But x7535 there was x1961 none x3808 like unto Ahab, 256 which x834 did sell y4376 z8694 himself x4376 to work 6213 z8800 wickedness 7451 in the sight 5869 of Yahweh, 3068 whom x834 x853 Jezebel 348 his wife 802 stirred up. 5496 z8689

 21:26 And he did very 3966 abominably 8581 z8686 in following 310 y3212 z8800 x1980 idols, 1544 according to all x3605 [things] as x834 did 6213 z8804 the Amorites, 567 whom x834 Yahweh 3068 cast out 3423 z8689 before 6440 x4480 the children 1121 of Israel. 3478

 21:27 And it came to pass, x1961 when Ahab 256 heard 8085 z8800 x853 those x428 words, 1697 that he rent 7167 z8799 his clothes, 899 and put 7760 z8799 sackcloth 8242 upon x5921 his flesh, 1320 and fasted, 6684 z8799 and lay 7901 z8799 in sackcloth, 8242 and went 1980 z8762 softly. 328

 21:28 And the word 1697 of Yahweh 3068 came x1961 to x413 Elijah 452 the Tishbite, 8664 saying, 559 z8800

 21:29 Seest 7200 z8804 thou how x3588 Ahab 256 humbleth y3665 z8738 himself x3665 before 6440 x4480 me? because 3282 x3588 he humbleth y3665 z8738 himself x3665 before 6440 x4480 me, I will not x3808 bring 935 z8686 the evil 7451 in his days: 3117 [but] in his son's 1121 days 3117 will I bring 935 z8686 the evil 7451 upon x5921 his house. 1004
