9 And this was the judgment of the letters: 'Proclaim a fast, and cause Naboth to sit among the first rulers of the people.
10 And send out two men, sons of Belial, against him. And let them speak the false testimony: 'He has blasphemed God and king.' And then lead him away, and stone him, and so let him die.'
11 Then his fellow citizens, those greater by birth and the nobles who were living with him in the city, did just as Jezebel had instructed them, and just as it was written in the letters that she had sent to them.
12 They proclaimed a fast, and they caused Naboth to sit among the first rulers of the people.
13 And bringing forward two men, sons of the devil, they caused them to sit opposite him. And they, acting indeed like diabolical men, spoke testimony against him before the multitude: 'Naboth has blasphemed God and king.' For this reason, they led him away, beyond the city, and they put him to death by stoning.
