7 Ne yere Isebel bisaa sɛ, "Wonyɛ Israelhene anaa? Sɔre na didi! Mma yei nha wo. Mɛgye Nabot bobeturo no ama wo!"

8 Na Isebel twerɛɛ nkrataa wɔ Ahab din mu, de ne nsɔano sɔɔ ano, de kɔmaa mpanimfoɔ ne akunini a wɔne Nabot te kuropɔn no mu no. 9 Krataa no mu nsɛm ne sɛ:

17 Ɛnna Awurade asɛm baa Tisbini Elia hɔ sɛ, 18 "Kɔ na kɔhyia Israelhene Ahab a ɔdi Samaria so no. Seesei ara ɔwɔ Nabot bobeturo no mu a ɔrebɛfa. 19 Ka kyerɛ no sɛ, sei na Awurade ka: ‘Ɛnnɔɔso sɛ wokum Nabot? Ɛsɛ sɛ wobɔ no korɔno nso? Deɛ woayɛ yi enti beaeɛ a nkraman taferee Nabot mogya no, ɛhɔ ara na nkraman bɛtafere wo mogya, aane, wʼankasa wo mogya!’ "

20 Ahab ka kyerɛɛ Elia sɛ, "Woahunu me, me ɔtamfoɔ."

23 "Na ɛfa Isebel ho nso no, Awurade ka sɛ, Yesreel nkraman bɛwe ne ɛnam wɔ kuropɔn no afasuo ho.

24 "Wɔn a na wɔwɔ Ahab afa a wɔwuwuu wɔ kuro no mu no nso, nkraman bɛwe wɔn ɛnam, na apete nso asosɔ wɔn a wɔwuwuu wɔ wiram no ɛnam."

25 (Obiara nni hɔ a ɔtɔn ne ho maa bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛdeɛ Ahab yɛeɛ no, ɛfiri sɛ, ne yere Isebel tuu no fo bɔne. 26 Ɔyɛɛ bɔne ara, kɔsii sɛ ɔkɔɔ ahoni so, te sɛ Amorifoɔ*21.26 Edin Amorifoɔ no gyina hɔ ma Palestinafoɔ a na wɔte hɔ dada ansa na Israelfoɔ reba no (1 Mose 15.15; 2 Mose 23.23; 5 Mose 1.7). a Awurade pamoo wɔn wɔ Israelfoɔ anim no).
