2 Kings 9:25-37

25Then saidH559 JehuH559 to BidkarH920 his captain, TakeH5375 upH5375, and castH7993 him in the portionH2513 of the fieldH7704 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158: for rememberH2142 howH3588 that, when I and thou rodeH7392 togetherH5921 afterH310 AhabH256 his fatherH1, the LORDH3068 laidH5375 this burdenH4853 uponH5921 him; 26SurelyH518 I have seenH7200 yesterdayH570 the bloodH1818 of NabothH5022, and the bloodH1818 of his sonsH1121, saith the LORDH3068; and I will requite thee in this plat, saith the LORDH3068. NowH6258 therefore takeH5375 and castH7993 him intoH7993 the plat of ground, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. 27But when AhaziahH274 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 sawH7200 this, he fledH5127 by the wayH1870 of the gardenH1588 houseH1004. An JehuH3058 followedH310 afterH310 him, and saidH559, SmiteH5221 him also in the chariotH4818: and they smoteH5221 him at the ascentH4608 of GurH1483, whichH834 is by IbleamH2991. And he fledH5127 to MegiddoH4023, and diedH4191 there. 28And his servantsH5650 carriedH7392 him in a chariotH7392 to JerusalemH3389, and buriedH6912 him in his sepulchre with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732. 29And in the eleventhH6240 yearH8141 of JoramH3141 the sonH1121 of AhabH256 began AhaziahH274 to reignH4427 over JudahH3063. 30And when JehuH3058 was comeH935 to JezreelH3157, JezebelH348 heardH8085 of it; and sheH348 painted herH935 eyesH5869, and tired herH935 headH7218, and lookedH8259 outH8259 at the windowH2474. 31And as JehuH3058 enteredH935 in at the gateH8179, she saidH559, Is it peaceH7965, thou ZimriH2174, thy master’sH113 murdererH2026? 32And he liftedH5375 upH5375 his faceH6440 to the windowH2474, and saidH559, Who is on my sideH854? who? And there lookedH8259 outH8259 to him twoH8147 or threeH7969 eunuchsH5631. 33And he saidH559, ThrowH8058 herH413 downH7429. So they threwH8058 herH413 downH7429: and some of herH413 bloodH1818 was sprinkled on the wallH7023, and on the horsesH5483: and he trode herH413 underH7429 foot. 34And when he was comeH935 in, he did eatH398 and drinkH8354; and he saidH559, SeeH935 nowH4994 to this cursedH779 womanH1323, and buryH6912 herH935: for sheH1931 is a king’sH4428 daughterH1323. 35And they went to buryH6912 herH518: but they foundH4672 noH3808 moreH3808 of herH518 thanH3808 the skullH1538, and the feetH7272, and the palmsH3709 of herH518 handsH3027. 36Wherefore they cameH7725 againH7725, and toldH5046 him. And he saidH559, This is the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, whichH834 he spake by his servantH5650 ElijahH452 the Tishbite, sayingH559, In the portionH2506 of JezreelH3157 shall the dogsH3611 eatH398 the fleshH1320 of JezebelH348: 37and the carcase of JezebelH348 shall be as dungH1828 uponH5921 the faceH6440 of the fieldH7704 in the portionH2506 of JezreelH3157; soH1961 that they shall notH3808 sayH559, This is JezebelH348.
