1 Kings 21:1-3

New International Version - UK

Naboth’s vineyard

21 Some time later there was an incident involving a vineyard belonging to Naboth the Jezreelite. The vineyard was in Jezreel, close to the palace of Ahab king of Samaria. ² Ahab said to Naboth, ‘Let me have your vineyard to use for a vegetable garden, since it is close to my palace. In exchange I will give you a better vineyard or, if you prefer, I will pay you whatever it is worth.’

³ But Naboth replied, ‘The Lord forbid that I should give you the inheritance of my ancestors.’
