1 Kings 21:8-10

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁸ So Jezebel wrote letters, signed them with Ahab’s name, and sealed them with his seal. She sent them to the respected leaders and nobles living in Naboth’s city. ⁹ In these letters she wrote: “Announce a fast. Seat Naboth as leader of the people. ¹⁰ Have two good-for-nothing men sit opposite him and accuse him of cursing God and the king. Then stone him to death outside the city.”
