1 Kings 21:6-8

English Standard Version

⁶ And he said to her, “Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite and said to him, ‘Give me your vineyard for money, or else, if it please you, I will give you another vineyard for it.’ And he answered, ‘I will not give you my vineyard.’” ⁷ And Jezebel his wife said to him, “Do you now govern Israel? Arise and eat bread and let your heart be cheerful; I will give you the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.”

^8 (A)So she wrote letters in Ahab's name and sealed them with his seal, and she sent the letters to ^(B)the elders and the leaders who lived with Naboth in his city.
