1 Kings 21:2 in Context — 1 Kings 21
1 Après ces choses, voici ce qui arriva. Naboth, de Jizreel, avait une vigne à Jizreel, à côté du palais d’Achab, roi de Samarie.
2 Et Achab parla ainsi à Naboth: Cède-moi ta vigne, pour que j’en fasse un jardin potager, car elle est tout près de ma maison. Je te donnerai à la place une vigne meilleure; ou, si cela te convient, je te paierai la valeur en argent.
3 Mais Naboth répondit à Achab: Que l’Éternel me garde de te donner l’héritage de mes pères!
4 Achab rentra dans sa maison, triste et irrité, à cause de cette parole que lui avait dite Naboth de Jizreel: Je ne te donnerai pas l’héritage de mes pères! Et il se coucha sur son lit, détourna le visage, et ne mangea rien.
