Portal:Bible/Featured chapter/1 Kings 21
Ahab tries to buy the vineyard of Naboth who refuses. Jezebel arranges for Naboth to be falsely accused and stoned to death. Elijah prophecies that Ahab's dynasty will be eaten by dogs and by the birds. Ahab then tears his clothes, so Elijah is told by Yahweh that Ahab's penitance has bought him time.
