13 The two good-for-nothing men came in and sat opposite him. In front of the people, these men accused Naboth of cursing God and the king. So the people stoned him to death outside the city.
14 Then the leaders sent ⌊this message⌋ to Jezbel: “Naboth has been stoned to death.”
15 Jezbel received the message and said to Ahab, “Get up! Confiscate the vineyard which Naboth from Jezreel refused to sell you. He’s dead now.”
16 When he heard about Naboth’s death, Ahab went to confiscate the vineyard.
17 Then the Lord spoke his word to Elijah from Tishbe:
18 “Go, meet King Ahab of Israel, who lives in Samaria. He went to confiscate Naboth’s vineyard.
19 Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord asks: Have you murdered someone just to confiscate ⌊a vineyard⌋?’ Then tell him, ‘This is what the Lord says: At the place where the dogs licked up Naboth’s blood, the dogs will lick up your blood.’ ”
