And he said unto her, Because I spake unto Naboth the Jezreelite, and said unto him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee another vineyard for it: and he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard — Ahab recounts his attempt to acquire the vineyard and Naboth's refusal. The phrase shows his focus on the property rather than the deeper issue of covenant law.
