The men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezebel had instructed them in the letters which she had written and sent to them.
They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.
The two men, the wicked fellows, came in and sat before him.
The wicked fellows testified against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, “Naboth cursed God and the king!”
Then they carried him out of the city and stoned him to death with stones.
Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, “Naboth has been stoned and is dead.”
