1 Kings 21:8 in Context — 1 Kings 21

6 E ele respondeu: Porque falei com Nabote de Jezreel, e disse-lhe que me desse sua vinha por dinheiro, ou que, se mais quisesse, eu lhe daria outra vinha por ela; e ele respondeu: Eu não te darei minha vinha.

7 E sua mulher Jezabel lhe disse: És tu agora rei sobre Israel? Levanta-te, e come pão, e alegra-te: eu te darei a vinha de Nabote de Jezreel.

8 Então ela escreveu cartas em nome de Acabe, e selou-as com seu anel e enviou-as aos anciãos e aos principais que moravam em sua cidade com Nabote.

9 E as cartas que escreveu diziam assim: Proclamai jejum, e ponde a Nabote em posição de destaque do povo;

10 E ponde dois homens perversos diante dele, que testemunhem contra ele, e digam: Tu blasfemaste a Deus e ao rei. E então o tirai, e apedrejai-o, e morra.
