8So she sent a letter in Ahab's name, stamped with his stamp, to the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority with Naboth.
9And in the letter she said, Let a time of public sorrow be fixed, and put Naboth at the head of the people;
10And get two good-for-nothing persons to come before him and give witness that he has been cursing God and the king. Then take him out and have him stoned to death.
11So the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority in his town, did as Jezebel had said in the letter she sent them.
12They gave orders for a day of public sorrow, and put Naboth at the head of the people.
13And the two good-for-nothing persons came in and took their seats before him and gave witness against Naboth, in front of the people, saying, Naboth has been cursing God and the king. Then they took him outside the town and had him stoned to death.
14And they sent word to Jezebel, saying, Naboth has been stoned and is dead.
