So she [Jezebel] wrote letters in Ahab’s name, sealed them with his seal, and sent them to the elders and other leaders of the town where Naboth live. In her letters, she commanded: “Call the citizens together for fasting and prayer, and give Natboth a place of honor. And then seat two scoundrels across from him who will accuse him of cursing God and the king. Then take him out an stone him to death.” (vv. 8-10, NLT)
So he [Naboth] was dragged outside the town and stoned to death. The town leaders then sent word to Jezebel, “Naboth has been stoned to death.”
When Jezebel heard the news, she said to Ahab, “You know the vineyard Naboth wouldn’t sell to you? Well, you can have it now. He’s dead!” So Ahab immediately went down to the vineyard of Naboth to claim it.
But the Lord said to Elijah, “Go down to meet King Ahab of Israel, who rules in Samaria. He will be a Naboth’s vineyard in Jezrell, claiming it for himself. Give him this message: ‘This is what the Lord says,: Wasn’t it enough that you killed Naboth? Must you rob him, too? Because you have done this , dogs will lick your blood at the very place where they licked the blood of Naboth!'” (vv. 15-19, NLT)
