1 Kings 21:3-5

Modern English Version

³ Naboth said to Ahab, “The Lord forbid that I should give you the inheritance of my fathers.”

⁴ Ahab returned home angry and depressed because of the answer Naboth the Jezreelite had given him, for he had said, “I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers.” He lay down on his bed and sulked and would not eat any bread.

⁵ But Jezebel his wife came to him and said, “Why is your spirit so sad that you refuse to eat bread?”
