1 Kings 21:20-24
New American Standard Bible
20 Then Ahab said to Elijah, “(A)Have you found me, enemy of mine?” And he [a]answered, “I have found you, (B)because you have given yourself over to do evil in the sight of the Lord. 21 Behold, I am bringing disaster upon you, and I (C)will utterly sweep you away, and will eliminate from Ahab every male, both [b]bond and free in Israel; 22 and (D)I will make your house (E)like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, because of the provocation with which you have provoked Me to anger, and because you (F)have misled Israel into sin. 23 The Lord has also spoken of Jezebel, saying, ‘(G)The dogs will eat Jezebel in the [c]territory of Jezreel.’ 24 (H)The one belonging to Ahab, who dies in the city, the dogs will eat; and the one who dies in the field, the birds of the sky will eat.”

New American Standard Bible
16 Then he said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Since you have sent messengers (A)to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron—is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word? Therefore [a]you will not get down from the bed upon which you have lain, but you shall certainly die.’”

Isaiah 66:4
New American Standard Bible
4 So I will (A)choose their [a]punishments
And (B)bring on them what they dread.
Because I called, but (C)no one answered;
I spoke, but they did not listen.
Instead, they did (D)evil in My sight
And chose that in which I did not delight.”
