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.
5 Jézabel, sa femme, vint auprès de lui, et lui dit: Pourquoi as-tu l’esprit triste et ne manges-tu point?
6 Il lui répondit: J’ai parlé à Naboth de Jizreel, et je lui ai dit: Cède-moi ta vigne pour de l’argent; ou, si tu veux, je te donnerai une autre vigne à la place. Mais il a dit: Je ne te donnerai pas ma vigne!
