1 Kings 21:11-13

New International Reader's Version

¹¹ So the elders and nobles who lived in that city did what Jezebel wanted. They did everything she directed in the letters she had written to them. ¹² They announced a day of fasting. They had Naboth sit in an important place among the people. ¹³ Then two worthless and evil men came and sat across from him. They brought charges against Naboth in front of the people. The two men said, “Naboth has cursed God and the king.” So they took him outside the city. They killed him by throwing stones at him.
