uild streets for yourself in Dameshek, as my abba made
in Shomron. Then said Achav, I will send you away with
this brit. So he made a brit with him, and sent him away.
35 And a certain man of the sons of the neviim said to his
neighbor by the word of vuvh, Smite me, please. And the
man refused to smite him.
36 Then said he to him, Because you have not obeyed the
voice of vuvh, see, as soon as you are departed from me, a
lion shall kill you. And as soon as he had departed from
him, a lion found him, and killed him.
37 Then he found another man, and said, Smite me,
please. And the man smote him, so that in smiting he
wounded him.
38 So the navi departed, and waited for the melech on a
road, and disguised himself with ashes upon his face.
39 And as the melech passed by, he cried to the melech:
and he said, Your eved went out into the midst of the
battle; and, see, a man came over, and brought a man to
me, and said, Guard this man: if by any means he is
missing, then shall your chayim be for his chayim, or else
you shall pay a talent of silver.
40 And as your eved was busy here and there, he left.
And the melech of Yisrael said to him, Your mishpat is
right; you yourself have decided it.
41 And he quickly removed the ashes away from his face;
and the melech of Yisrael discerned that he was one of
the neviim.
42 And he said to him, This says vuvh, Because you have
let go out of your hand a man whom I appointed to utter
destruction, therefore your chayim shall go for his
chayim, and your people for his people.
43 And the melech of Yisrael went to his bayit bitter and
displeased, and came to Shomron.
21
And it came to pass after these things, that Navoth
the Yezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Yezreel, near
by the palace of Achav melech of Shomron.
2 And Achav spoke to Navoth, saying, Give me your
vineyard, that I may have it for a gan of herbs, because it
is near to my bayit: and I will give you for it a better
vineyard; or if it seems tov to you, I will give you its
worth in silver.
3 And Navoth said to Achav, vuvh forbid, that I should
give the inheritance of my ahvot to you.
4 And Achav came into his bayit bitter and displeased
because of the word which Navoth the Yezreelite had
spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give you the
inheritance of my ahvot. And he lay down upon his bed,
and turned his face, and would eat no food.
5 But Isavel his wife came to him, and said to him, Why
is your ruach so sad, that you eat no lechem?
6 And he said to her, Because I spoke to Navoth the
Yezreelite, and said to him, Give me your vineyard for
money; or else, if it pleases you, I will give you another
vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give you my
vineyard.
7 And Isavel his wife said to him, Do you now govern the
malchut of Yisrael? Arise, and eat lechem, and let your
lev be in simcha: I will give you the vineyard of Navoth
the Yezreelite.
8 So she wrote letters in Achav's name, and sealed them
with his seal, and sent the letters to the zechanim and to
the nobles that were in the city, dwelling with Navoth.

9 And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and
set Navoth at the head of the people:
10 And set two men, sons of Beliyaal, before him, to bear
witness against him, saying, You did blaspheme Elohim
and the melech. And then carry him out, and stone him,
that he may die.
11 And the men of his city, even the zechanim and the
nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Isavel
had sent to them, and as it was written in the letters that
she had sent to them.
12 They proclaimed a fast, and set Navoth at the head of
the people.
13 And there came in two men, children of Beliyaal, 974
and sat before him: and the men of Beliyaal witnessed
against him, even against Navoth, in the presence of the
people, saying, Navoth did blaspheme Elohim and the
melech. Then they carried him out of the city, and stoned
him with stones, that he died.
14 Then they sent to Isavel, saying, Navoth is stoned, and
is dead.
15 And it came to pass, when Isavel heard that Navoth
was stoned, and was dead, that Isavel said to Achav,
Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Navoth the
Yezreelite, which he refused to give you for money: for
Navoth is not alive, but dead.
16 And it came to pass, when Achav heard that Navoth
was dead, that Achav rose up to go down to the vineyard
of Navoth the Yezreelite, to take possession of it.
17 And the word of vuvh came to Eliyahu the Tishbite,
saying,
18 Arise, go down to meet Achav melech of Yisrael, who
is in Shomron: see, he is in the vineyard of Navoth, where
he has gone down to possess it.
19 And you shall speak to him, saying, This says vuvh,
Have you killed, and also taken possession? And you
shall speak to him, saying, This says vuvh, In the place
where dogs licked the dahm of Navoth shall dogs lick
your dahm, even your….……………. 975
20 And Achav said to Eliyahu, Have you found me, O my
enemy? And he answered, I have found you: because you
have sold yourself to work evil in the sight of vuvh.
21 See, I will bring evil upon you, and will consume your
descendants, and will cut off from Achav every male, both
him that is shut up and him that is left in Yisrael,
22 And will make your bayit like Beit Yahravam the son
of Nevat, and like the bayit of Ba-Asha the son of
Achiyah, for the provocation by which you have provoked
Me to anger, and made Yisrael to sin.
23 And of Isavel also spoke vuvh, saying, The dogs shall
eat Isavel by the wall of Yezreel.
24 Him that dies of Achav in the city the dogs shall eat;
and him that dies in the field shall the fowls of the air eat.
25 But there was none like Achav, who did sell himself to
work wickedness in the sight of vuvh, whom Isavel his
wife stirred up.
26 And he did very abominably in following idols,
according to all things as did the Amorites, whom vuvh
cast out before the children of Yisrael.
27 And it came to pass, when Achav heard those words,
that he tore his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh,
and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went mourning.
28 And the word of vuvh came to Eliyahu the Tishbite,
saying,
