And the king of Israel said unto him, So shall thy judgment be; thyself hast decided it. 11:020:041 And he hasted, and took the ashes away from his face; and the king of Israel discerned him that he was of the prophets. 11:020:042 And he said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Because thou hast let go out of thy hand a man whom I appointed to utter destruction, therefore thy life shall go for his life, and thy people for his people. 11:020:043 And the king of Israel went to his house heavy and displeased, and came to Samaria. 11:021:001 And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria. 11:021:002 And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money. 11:021:003 And Naboth said to Ahab, The LORD forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee. 11:021:004 And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers.
