1 Kings 21:27-29
International Children’s Bible
27 After Elijah finished speaking, Ahab tore his clothes. He put on rough cloth and refused to eat. He even slept in the rough cloth. He did this to show how sad and upset he was.
28 The Lord spoke his word to Elijah from Tishbe: 29 “I see that Ahab is now sorry for what he has done. So I will not cause the trouble to come to him during his life. I will wait until his son is king. Then I will bring this trouble to Ahab’s family.”

27 When Ahab heard these words, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth(A) and fasted. He lay in sackcloth and went around meekly.(B)
28 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite: 29 “Have you noticed how Ahab has humbled himself before me? Because he has humbled(C) himself, I will not bring this disaster in his day,(D) but I will bring it on his house in the days of his son.”(E)
