1 Kings 21:27-29

New Century Version

²⁷ After Elijah finished speaking, Ahab tore his clothes. He put on rough cloth, fasted, and even slept in the rough cloth to show how sad and upset he was.

²⁸ The Lord spoke his word to Elijah the Tishbite: ²⁹ “I see that Ahab is now sorry for what he has done. So I will not cause the trouble to come to him during his life, but I will wait until his son is king. Then I will bring this trouble to Ahab’s family.”
