Stonde vp, and eate bred, I wyl get the the vynyarde of Naboth the Iesraelite. ⁸ And she wrote a letter vnder Achabs name, and sealed it with his signet, and sent it vnto ye Elders and rulers in his cite, which dwelt aboute Naboth, ⁹ and wrote thus in ye letter: Proclame a fast, and set Naboth aboue in the people, ¹⁰ and set two men of Belial before him, to testifye and saye: Thou hast blasphemed God and the kynge. And brynge him forth, and stone him to death. ¹¹ And the Elders and rulers of his cyte, which dwelt in his cite, dyd as Iesabel had commaunded them, acordynge as she had wrytten in the letter that she sent vnto them ¹² and they proclamed a fast, and caused Naboth to syt aboue amonge the people. ¹³ Then came the two men of Belial, and stode before him, and testyfyed agaynst Naboth in ye presence of the people, and sayde: Naboth hath blasphemed God and the kynge.
