1 Kings 21:7-9

New Life Version

⁷ Jezebel his wife said to him, “Do you now rule over Israel? Get up, eat food, and let your heart be filled with joy. I will give you the grape-field of Naboth the Jezreelite.” ⁸ So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name and put the mark of his name on them. She sent letters to the leaders and the king’s sons who were living with Naboth in his city. ⁹ She wrote in the letters, saying, “Tell the people that it is a time when they should not eat. And put Naboth in front of the people.
