1 Kings 21

1 Kings 21

1And it came to pass after these things, [that] Navot [fruits] the Yizre’eli [God Sows] had a vineyard, which [was] in Yizre’el [God Sows] , right next to the palace of Ach’av [father’s brother] king of Shomron [watch mountain] .

2And Ach’av [father’s brother] spoke unto Navot [fruits] , saying, Give me youri vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it [is] near unto my house: and I will give youi for it a better vineyard than it; [or] , if it seem good to youi , I will give youi the monetary value of it in money.

3And Navot [fruits] said to Ach’av [father’s brother] , The Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers unto youi .

4And Ach’av [father’s brother] came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Navot [fruits] the Yizre’eli [God Sows] had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give youi the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.

5But Izevel [Ba’al exalts] his wife came to him, and said unto him, Why is youri spirit so sad, that youi eat no bread?

6And he said unto her, Because I spoke unto Navot [fruits] the Yizre’eli [God Sows] , and said unto him, Give me youri vineyard for money; or else, if it please youi , I will give youi [another] vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give youi my vineyard.

7And Izevel [Ba’al exalts] his wife said unto him, Do youi now govern the kingdom of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] ? arise, [and] eat bread, and let youri heart be merry: I will give youi the vineyard of Navot [fruits] the Yizre’eli [God Sows] .

8So she wrote letters in Ach’av’s [father’s brother] name, and sealed [them] with his seal, and sent the letters unto the elders and to the nobles that [were] in his city, dwelling with Navot [fruits] .

9And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Navot [fruits] on high among the people:

10And set two men, sons of Belial [Worthless, Good for Nothing] , before him, to bear witness against him, saying, youi did blaspheme God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] and the king. And [then] carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.

11And the men of his city, [even] the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Izevel [Ba’al exalts] had sent unto them, [and] as it [was] written in the letters which she had sent unto them.

12They proclaimed a fast, and set Navot [fruits] on high among the people.

13And there came in two men, children of Belial [Worthless, Good for Nothing] , and sat before him: and the men of Belial [Worthless, Good for Nothing] witnessed against him, [even] against Navot [fruits] , in the presence of the people, saying, Navot [fruits] did blaspheme God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.

14Then they sent to Izevel [Ba’al exalts] , saying, Navot [fruits] is stoned, and is dead.

15And it came to pass, when Izevel [Ba’al exalts] heard that Navot [fruits] was stoned, and was dead, that Izevel [Ba’al exalts] said to Ach’av [father’s brother] , Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Navot [fruits] the Yizre’eli [God Sows] , which he refused to give youi for money: for Navot [fruits] is not alive, but dead.

16And it came to pass, when Ach’av [father’s brother] heard that Navot [fruits] was dead, that Ach’av [father’s brother] rose up to go down to the vineyard of Navot [fruits] the Yizre’eli [God Sows] , to take possession of it.

17And the word of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) came to Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah] the Tishbi [captivity] , saying,

18Arise, go down to meet Ach’av [father’s brother] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] , which [is] in Shomron [watch mountain] : behold, [he is] in the vineyard of Navot [fruits] , to which he is gone down to possess it.

19And youi shall speak unto him, saying, Thus says the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , Have youi killed, and also taken possession? And youi shall speak unto him, saying, Thus says the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , In the place where dogs licked the blood of Navot [fruits] shall dogs lick youri blood, even yoursi.

20And Ach’av [father’s brother] said to Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah] , Have youi found me, O my enemy? And he answered, I have found [you ] : because youi have sold yourself to work evil in the sight of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) .

21Behold, I will bring evil upon youi , and will take away youri posterity, and will cut off from Ach’av [father’s brother] him that pisses against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] ,

22And will make youri house like the house of Yarov’am [the people will contend] the son of N’vat [aspect] , and like the house of Ba’sha [wicked] the son of Achiyah [brother of Yehovah] , for the provocation with which youi have provoked [me] to anger, and made Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] to sin.

23And of Izevel [Ba’al exalts] also spoke the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , saying, The dogs shall eat Izevel [Ba’al exalts] by the wall of Yizre’el [God Sows] .

24Him that dies of Ach’av [father’s brother] in the city the dogs shall eat; and him that dies in the field shall the fowls of the air eat.

25But there was none like unto Ach’av [father’s brother] , which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , whom Izevel [Ba’al exalts] his wife stirred up.

26And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all [things] as did the Emori [Highlanders] , whom the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) cast out before the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] .

27And it came to pass, when Ach’av [father’s brother] heard those words, that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.

28And the word of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) came to Eliyahu [my God is Yehovah] the Tishbi [captivity] , saying,

29See youi how Ach’av [father’s brother] humbles himself before me? because he humbles himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days: [but] in his son’s days will I bring the evil upon his house.
