And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 had a vineyardH3754, which was in JezreelH3157, hard byH681 the palaceH1964 of AhabH256 kingH4428 of SamariaH8111.
And AhabH256 spakeH1696 unto NabothH5022, sayingH559, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754, that I may have it for a gardenH1588 of herbsH3419, because it is nearH7138 untoH681 my houseH1004: and I will giveH5414 thee for it a betterH2896 vineyardH3754 than it; or, if it seem goodH2896 to theeH5869, I will giveH5414 thee the worthH4242 of it in moneyH3701. {seem…: Heb. be good in thine eyes}
And NabothH5022 saidH559 to AhabH256, The LORDH3068 forbidH2486 it me, that I should giveH5414 the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1 unto thee.
And AhabH256 cameH935 into his houseH1004 heavyH5620 and displeasedH2198 because of the wordH1697 which NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 had spokenH1696 to him: for he had saidH559, I will not giveH5414 thee the inheritanceH5159 of my fathersH1. And he laid him downH7901 upon his bedH4296, and turned awayH5437 his faceH6440, and would eatH398 no breadH3899.
But JezebelH348 his wifeH802 cameH935 to him, and saidH1696 unto him, Why is thy spiritH7307 so sadH5620, that thou eatestH398 no breadH3899?
And he saidH1696 unto her, Because I spakeH1696 unto NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158, and saidH559 unto him, GiveH5414 me thy vineyardH3754 for moneyH3701; or else, if it pleaseH2655 thee, I will giveH5414 thee another vineyardH3754 for it: and he answeredH559, I will not giveH5414 thee my vineyardH3754.
And JezebelH348 his wifeH802 saidH559 unto him, Dost thou now governH6213 the kingdomH4410 of IsraelH3478? ariseH6965, and eatH398 breadH3899, and let thine heartH3820 be merryH3190: I will giveH5414 thee the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158.
So she wroteH3789 lettersH5612 in Ahab'sH256 nameH8034, and sealedH2856 them with his sealH2368, and sentH7971 the lettersH5612 unto the eldersH2205 and to the noblesH2715 that were in his cityH5892, dwellingH3427 with NabothH5022.
And she wroteH3789 in the lettersH5612, sayingH559, ProclaimH7121 a fastH6685, and setH3427 NabothH5022 on highH7218 among the peopleH5971: {on high…: Heb. in the top of the people}
And setH3427 twoH8147 menH582, sonsH1121 of BelialH1100, before him, to bear witnessH5749 against him, sayingH559, Thou didst blasphemeH1288 GodH430 and the kingH4428. And then carry him outH3318, and stoneH5619 him, that he may dieH4191.
And the menH582 of his cityH5892, even the eldersH2205 and the noblesH2715 who were the inhabitantsH3427 in his cityH5892, didH6213 as JezebelH348 had sentH7971 unto them, and as it was writtenH3789 in the lettersH5612 which she had sentH7971 unto them.
They proclaimedH7121 a fastH6685, and setH3427 NabothH5022 on highH7218 among the peopleH5971.
And there cameH935 in twoH8147 menH582, childrenH1121 of BelialH1100, and satH3427 before him: and the menH582 of BelialH1100 witnessedH5749 against him, even against NabothH5022, in the presence of the peopleH5971, sayingH559, NabothH5022 did blasphemeH1288 GodH430 and the kingH4428. Then they carried him forthH3318 outH2351 of the cityH5892, and stonedH5619 him with stonesH68, that he diedH4191.
Then they sentH7971 to JezebelH348, sayingH559, NabothH5022 is stonedH5619, and is deadH4191.
And it came to pass, when JezebelH348 heardH8085 that NabothH5022 was stonedH5619, and was deadH4191, that JezebelH348 saidH559 to AhabH256, AriseH6965, take possessionH3423 of the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158, which he refusedH3985 to giveH5414 thee for moneyH3701: for NabothH5022 is not aliveH2416, but deadH4191.
And it came to pass, when AhabH256 heardH8085 that NabothH5022 was deadH4191, that AhabH256 rose upH6965 to go downH3381 to the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158, to take possessionH3423 of it.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to ElijahH452 the TishbiteH8664, sayingH559,
AriseH6965, go downH3381 to meetH7125 AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, which is in SamariaH8111: behold, he is in the vineyardH3754 of NabothH5022, whither he is gone downH3381 to possessH3423 it.
And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Hast thou killedH7523, and also taken possessionH3423? And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, In the placeH4725 where dogsH3611 lickedH3952 the bloodH1818 of NabothH5022 shall dogsH3611 lickH3952 thy bloodH1818, even thine.
And AhabH256 saidH559 to ElijahH452, Hast thou foundH4672 me, O mine enemyH341? And he answeredH559, I have foundH4672 thee: because thou hast soldH4376 thyself to workH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon thee, and will take awayH1197 thy posterityH310, and will cut offH3772 from AhabH256 him that pissethH8366 against the wallH7023, and him that is shut upH6113 and leftH5800 in IsraelH3478,
And will makeH5414 thine houseH1004 like the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, and like the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281, for the provocationH3708 wherewith thou hast provoked me to angerH3707, and made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And of JezebelH348 also spakeH1696 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, The dogsH3611 shall eatH398 JezebelH348 by the wallH2426 of JezreelH3157. {wall: or, ditch}
Him that diethH4191 of AhabH256 in the cityH5892 the dogsH3611 shall eatH398; and him that diethH4191 in the fieldH7704 shall the fowlsH5775 of the airH8064 eatH398.
But there was none like unto AhabH256, which did sellH4376 himself to workH6213 wickednessH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, whom JezebelH348 his wifeH802 stirred upH5496. {stirred…: or, incited}
And he did veryH3966 abominablyH8581 in followingH3212+H310 idolsH1544, according to all things as didH6213 the AmoritesH567, whom the LORDH3068 cast outH3423 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And it came to pass, when AhabH256 heardH8085 those wordsH1697, that he rentH7167 his clothesH899, and putH7760 sackclothH8242 upon his fleshH1320, and fastedH6684, and layH7901 in sackclothH8242, and wentH1980 softlyH328.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to ElijahH452 the TishbiteH8664, sayingH559,
SeestH7200 thou how AhabH256 humblethH3665 himself beforeH6440 me? becauseH3282 he humblethH3665 himself beforeH6440 me, I will not bringH935 the evilH7451 in his daysH3117: but in his son'sH1121 daysH3117 will I bringH935 the evilH7451 upon his houseH1004.

And it came to pass in the morningH1242, that DavidH1732 wroteH3789 a letterH5612 to JoabH3097, and sentH7971 it by the handH3027 of UriahH223.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, GatherH622 unto me seventyH7657 menH376 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, whom thou knowestH3045 to be the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and officersH7860 over them; and bringH3947 them unto the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, that they may standH3320 there with thee.
And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158 had a vineyardH3754, which was in JezreelH3157, hard byH681 the palaceH1964 of AhabH256 kingH4428 of SamariaH8111.
And he wroteH3789 in the letterH5612, sayingH559, SetH3051 ye UriahH223 in the forefrontH6440+H4136 of the hottestH2389 battleH4421, and retireH7725 ye from himH310, that he may be smittenH5221, and dieH4191. {hottest: Heb. strong} {from him: Heb. from after him}
JudgesH8199 and officersH7860 shalt thou makeH5414 thee in all thy gatesH8179, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee, throughout thy tribesH7626: and they shall judgeH8199 the peopleH5971 with justH6664 judgmentH4941.
And AhabH256 had seventyH7657 sonsH1121 in SamariaH8111. And JehuH3058 wroteH3789 lettersH5612, and sentH7971 to SamariaH8111, unto the rulersH8269 of JezreelH3157, to the eldersH2205, and to them that brought upH539 Ahab'sH256 children, sayingH559, {them…: Heb. nourishers}
Now as soon as this letterH5612 comethH935 to you, seeing your master'sH113 sonsH1121 are with you, and there are with you chariotsH7393 and horsesH5483, a fencedH4013 cityH5892 also, and armourH5402;
Look even outH7200 the bestH2896 and meetestH3477 of your master'sH113 sonsH1121, and setH7760 him on his father'sH1 throneH3678, and fightH3898 for your master'sH113 houseH1004.
But they were exceedinglyH3966+H3966 afraidH3372, and saidH559, Behold, twoH8147 kingsH4428 stoodH5975 not beforeH6440 him: how then shall we standH5975?
And he that was over the houseH1004, and he that was over the cityH5892, the eldersH2205 also, and the bringers upH539 of the children, sentH7971 to JehuH3058, sayingH559, We are thy servantsH5650, and will doH6213 all that thou shalt bidH559 us; we will not make anyH376 kingH4427: doH6213 thou that which is goodH2896 in thine eyesH5869.
Then he wroteH3789 a letterH5612 the second timeH8145 to them, sayingH559, If ye be mine, and if ye will hearkenH8085 unto my voiceH6963, takeH3947 ye the headsH7218 of the menH582 your master'sH113 sonsH1121, and comeH935 to me to JezreelH3157 by to morrowH4279 this timeH6256. Now the king'sH4428 sonsH1121, being seventyH7657 personsH376, were with the great menH1419 of the cityH5892, which brought them upH1431. {mine: Heb. for me}
And it came to pass, when the letterH5612 cameH935 to them, that they tookH3947 the king'sH4428 sonsH1121, and slewH7819 seventyH7657 personsH376, and putH7760 their headsH7218 in basketsH1731, and sentH7971 him them to JezreelH3157.
He wroteH3789 also lettersH5612 to railH2778 on the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and to speakH559 against him, sayingH559, As the godsH430 of the nationsH1471 of other landsH776 have not deliveredH5337 their peopleH5971 out of mine handH3027, so shall not the GodH430 of HezekiahH3169 deliverH5337 his peopleH5971 out of mine handH3027.
Thou shalt not wrestH5186 judgmentH4941; thou shalt not respectH5234 personsH6440, neither takeH3947 a giftH7810: for a giftH7810 doth blindH5786 the eyesH5869 of the wiseH2450, and pervertH5557 the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662. {words: or, matters}
So JehuH3058 slewH5221 all that remainedH7604 of the houseH1004 of AhabH256 in JezreelH3157, and all his great menH1419, and his kinsfolksH3045, and his priestsH3548, until he leftH7604 him none remainingH8300. {kinsfolks: or, acquaintance}
And in the daysH3117 of ArtaxerxesH783 wroteH3789 BishlamH1312, MithredathH4990, TabeelH2870, and the restH7605 of their companionsH3674, unto ArtaxerxesH783 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539; and the writingH3791 of the letterH5406 was writtenH3789 in the Syrian tongueH762, and interpretedH8638 in the Syrian tongueH762. {Bishlam: or, in peace} {companions: Heb. societies}
If one be foundH4672 slainH2491 in the landH127 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee to possessH3423 it, lyingH5307 in the fieldH7704, and it be not knownH3045 who hath slainH5221 him:
Then thy eldersH2205 and thy judgesH8199 shall come forthH3318, and they shall measureH4058 unto the citiesH5892 which are round aboutH5439 him that is slainH2491:
And it shall be, that the cityH5892 which is nextH7138 unto the slain manH2491, even the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892 shall takeH3947 an heiferH1241+H5697, which hath not been wrought withH5647, and which hath not drawnH4900 in the yokeH5923;
And the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892 shall bring downH3381 the heiferH5697 unto a roughH386 valleyH5158, which is neither earedH5647 nor sownH2232, and shall strike offH6202 the heifer'sH5697 neckH6202 there in the valleyH5158:
And the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 shall come nearH5066; for them the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath chosenH977 to ministerH8334 unto him, and to blessH1288 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068; and by their wordH6310 shall every controversyH7379 and every strokeH5061 be tried: {word: Heb. mouth}
And all the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892, that are nextH7138 unto the slainH2491 man, shall washH7364 their handsH3027 over the heiferH5697 that is beheadedH6202 in the valleyH5158:
And they shall answerH6030 and sayH559, Our handsH3027 have not shedH8210 this bloodH1818, neither have our eyesH5869 seenH7200 it.
Be mercifulH3722, O LORDH3068, unto thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, whom thou hast redeemedH6299, and layH5414 not innocentH5355 bloodH1818 unto thy peopleH5971 of Israel'sH3478 chargeH7130. And the bloodH1818 shall be forgivenH3722 them. {unto thy people of: Heb. in the midst, etc}
So shalt thou put awayH1197 the guilt of innocentH5355 bloodH1818 from amongH7130 you, when thou shalt doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
RehumH7348 the chancellorH1169+H2942 and ShimshaiH8124 the scribeH5613 wroteH3790 aH2298 letterH104 againstH5922 JerusalemH3390 to ArtaxerxesH783 the kingH4430 in this sortH3660: {scribe: or, secretary}
ThisH1836 is the copyH6573 of the letterH104 thatH1768 they sentH7972 unto himH5922, even unto ArtaxerxesH783 the kingH4430; Thy servantsH5649 the menH606 on this sideH5675 the riverH5103, and at such a timeH3706.
Then sentH7971 SanballatH5571 his servantH5288 unto me in like mannerH1697 the fifthH2549 timeH6471 with an openH6605 letterH107 in his handH3027;
Then were the king'sH4428 scribesH5608 calledH7121 on the thirteenthH7969+H6240 dayH3117 of the firstH7223 monthH2320, and there was writtenH3789 according to all that HamanH2001 had commandedH6680 unto the king'sH4428 lieutenantsH323, and to the governorsH6346 that were over every provinceH4082, and to the rulersH8269 of every peopleH5971 of every provinceH4082 according to the writingH3791 thereof, and to every peopleH5971 after their languageH3956; in the nameH8034 of kingH4428 AhasuerusH325 was it writtenH3789, and sealedH2856 with the king'sH4428 ringH2885. {scribes: or, secretaries}
And the lettersH5612 were sentH7971 byH3027 postsH7323 into all the king'sH4428 provincesH4082, to destroyH8045, to killH2026, and to cause to perishH6, all JewsH3064, both youngH5288 and oldH2205, little childrenH2945 and womenH802, in oneH259 dayH3117, even upon the thirteenthH7969+H6240 day of the twelfthH8147+H6240 monthH2320, which is the monthH2320 AdarH143, and to take the spoilH7998 of them for a preyH962.
The copyH6572 of the writingH3791 for a commandmentH1881 to be givenH5414 in every provinceH4082 was publishedH1540 unto all peopleH5971, that they should be readyH6264 against that dayH3117.
The postsH7323 went outH3318, being hastenedH1765 by the king'sH4428 commandmentH1697, and the decreeH1881 was givenH5414 in ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002. And the kingH4428 and HamanH2001 sat downH3427 to drinkH8354; but the cityH5892 ShushanH7800 was perplexedH943.
WriteH3789 ye also for the JewsH3064, as it likethH2896 youH5869, in the king'sH4428 nameH8034, and sealH2856 it with the king'sH4428 ringH2885: for the writingH3791 which is writtenH3789 in the king'sH4428 nameH8034, and sealedH2856 with the king'sH4428 ringH2885, may no man reverseH7725.
Then were the king'sH4428 scribesH5608 calledH7121 at that timeH6256 in the thirdH7992 monthH2320, that is, the monthH2320 SivanH5510, on the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 day thereof; and it was writtenH3789 according to all that MordecaiH4782 commandedH6680 unto the JewsH3064, and to the lieutenantsH323, and the deputiesH6346 and rulersH8269 of the provincesH4082 which are from IndiaH1912 unto EthiopiaH3568, an hundredH3967 twentyH6242 and sevenH7651 provincesH4082, unto every provinceH4082 according to the writingH3791 thereof, and unto every peopleH5971 after their languageH3956, and to the JewsH3064 according to their writingH3791, and according to their languageH3956.
And he wroteH3789 in the kingH4428 Ahasuerus'H325 nameH8034, and sealedH2856 it with the king'sH4428 ringH2885, and sentH7971 lettersH5612 byH3027 postsH7323 on horsebackH5483, and ridersH7392 on mulesH7409, camelsH327, and youngH1121 dromedariesH7424:
Wherein the kingH4428 grantedH5414 the JewsH3064 which were in every cityH5892 to gather themselves togetherH6950, and to standH5975 for their lifeH5315, to destroyH8045, to slayH2026, and to cause to perishH6, all the powerH2428 of the peopleH5971 and provinceH4082 that would assaultH6696 them, both little onesH2945 and womenH802, and to take the spoilH7998 of them for a preyH962,
Upon oneH259 dayH3117 in all the provincesH4082 of kingH4428 AhasuerusH325, namely, upon the thirteenthH7969+H6240 day of the twelfthH8147+H6240 monthH2320, which is the monthH2320 AdarH143.
The copyH6572 of the writingH3791 for a commandmentH1881 to be givenH5414 in every provinceH4082 was publishedH1540 unto all peopleH5971, and that the JewsH3064 should be readyH6264+H6259 against that dayH3117 to avengeH5358 themselves on their enemiesH341. {published: Heb. revealed}
