9 Y escribió en las cartas, diciendo: Proclamad ayuno y sentad a Nabot a la cabeza del pueblo.
10 Sentad a dos hombres malvados delante de él que testifiquen contra él, diciendo: "Tú has blasfemado a Dios y al rey." Entonces sacadlo y apedreadlo para que muera.
11 Los hombres de su ciudad, los ancianos y los nobles que vivían en su ciudad, hicieron como Jezabel les había mandado, tal como estaba escrito en las cartas que ella les había enviado.
12 Proclamaron ayuno y sentaron a Nabot a la cabeza del pueblo.
13 Entonces entraron los dos hombres malvados y se sentaron delante de él; y los dos hombres malvados testificaron contra él, es decir, contra Nabot delante del pueblo, diciendo: Nabot ha blasfemado a Dios y al rey. Y lo llevaron fuera de la ciudad, lo apedrearon y murió.
