1 Kings 21:9-14

Rotherham(i) 9 Now she wrote in the letters, saying,––Proclaim ye a fast, and cause Naboth to sit at the head of the people; 10 then let two reckless men take their seats before him, that they may bear witness against him, saying, Thou hast reviled God and king! then shall ye carry him forth and stone him, that he die. 11 So the men of his city, the elders and the nobles who dwelt in his city, did just as Jezebel had sent unto them,––as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them: 12 they proclaimed a fast,––and caused Naboth to sit at the head of the people. 13 Then came in the two reckless men, and sat before him, and the men bare witness against him, even against Naboth, before the people, saying, Naboth hath reviled God and king! So they carried him forth, outside the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died. 14 Then sent they unto Jezebel, saying,––Naboth is stoned and is dead.
