1 Some time after these events, Naboth (fruits) the Jezreelite owned a vineyard in Jezreel (God sows) next to the palace of Ahab (father's brother) king of Samaria (watch mountain).

2 So Ahab (father's brother) said to Naboth (fruits), “Give me your vineyard to use as a vegetable garden, since it is next to my palace. I will give you a better vineyard in its place—or if you prefer, I will give you its value in silver.”

3 But Naboth (fruits) replied (father's brother), “The LORD {YHWH} forbid that I should give you the inheritance of my fathers.”
