## 1 Kings 21:8-10 in Context (Verses 5–13 KJV)
 
 [5 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/5) ¶ But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said unto him, Why is thy spirit so sad, that thou eatest no bread?
 
 [6 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/6) And he said unto her, Because I spake unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee *another* vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/7) And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? arise, *and* eat bread, and let thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/8) So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name, and sealed *them* with his seal, and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that *were* in his city, dwelling with Naboth.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/9) And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:*
 
 [10 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/10) And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And *then* carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/11) And the men of his city, *even* the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them, *and* as it *was* written in the letters which she had sent unto them.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/12) They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/1-kings/21/13) And there came in two men, children of Belial, and sat before him: and the men of Belial witnessed against him, *even* against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.
