1 Kings 21:4

And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him: for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.

He laid him down upon his bed. The divan extends across the whole length or breadth of a room. It is raised a little above the floor, and spread with carpets or fine mats, on which the inmates sit or recline, their backs being supported by cushions placed, against the wall (see Russel's 'Aleppo;' Shaw's 'Travels').

Turned away his face - either to conceal from his attendants the vexation of spirit he felt, or by the affectation great sorrow rouse them to devise some means of gratifying his wishes.
