18 Arise, go down to meet Ahab King of Israel, which is in Samaria: lo, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he is gone down to take possession of it.
19 Therefore shalt thou say unto him, Thus saith the Lord, [a]Hast thou killed, and also gotten possession? And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the Lord, [b]In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, shall dogs lick even thy blood also.
20 And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he answered, I have found thee: for thou hast sold thyself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord.
