- "Then saidª° [Jehu] to¹ Bidkarª his captain,ª Take up,ª° [and] castª° him in the portionª of the fieldª of Nabothª the Jezreelite:ª for¹ rememberª° how that, when I¹ and thou¹¹ rodeª° togetherª afterª Ahabª his father,ª the LORDª laidª°¹ this¹ burdenª upon¹ him;" {2Kg 9:25} + "And it came to pass¹ afterª these¹ things,ª [that] Nabothª the Jezreeliteª had¹ a vineyard,ª which¹ [was] in Jezreel,ª hard¹ by² the palaceª of Ahabª kingª of Samaria.ª ... And Jezebelª his wifeª saidª° unto¹ him, Dost thou¹ now¹ governª°¹ the kingdomª of Israel?ª arise,ª° [and] eatª° bread,ª and let thine heartª be merry:ª° I¹ will giveª° thee¹ the vineyardª of Nabothª the Jezreelite.ª" {1Kg 21:1-7} + "And it came to pass,¹ when Jezebelª heardª° that¹ Nabothª was stoned,ª° and was dead,ª° that Jezebelª saidª° to¹ Ahab,ª Arise,ª° take possessionª° of¹ the vineyardª of Nabothª the Jezreelite,ª which¹ he refusedª° to giveª° thee for money:ª for¹ Nabothª is not¹ alive,ª but¹ dead.ª°" {1Kg 21:15} + "Arise,ª° go downª° to meet²°¹ Ahabª kingª of Israel,ª which¹ [is] in Samaria:ª behold,¹ [he is] in the vineyardª of Naboth,ª whither¹¹ he is gone downª° to possessª° it. ... And thou shalt speakª° unto¹ him, saying,ª° Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª Hast thou killed,ª° and also¹ taken possession?ª° And thou shalt speakª° unto¹ him, saying,ª° Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª In the placeª where¹ dogsª lickedª°¹ the bloodª of Nabothª shall dogsª lickª°¹ thy blood,ª even¹ thine.¹" {1Kg 21:18-19}
