* Then he wrote a letter the second time to them , saying , If ye be mine , and if ye will hearken unto my voice , take ye the heads of the men your masters sons , and come to me to Jezreel Yizr @#e #l # by to morrow this time . Now the kings sons , being seventy persons , were with the great men of the city , which brought them up . * And it came to pass , when the letter came to them , that they took the kings sons , and slew seventy persons , and put their heads in baskets , and sent him them to Jezreel Yizr @#e #l #. * And there came a messenger mal #ak #, and told him , saying , They have brought the heads of the kings sons . And he said , Lay ye them in two heaps at the entering in of the gate until the morning . * And it came to pass in the morning , that he went out , and stood , and said to all the people , Ye be righteous : behold , I conspired against my master , and slew him : but who slew all these ? * Know now that there shall fall unto the earth nothing of the word of the LORD , which the LORD spake concerning the house of Ahab #Ach #ab #: for the LORD hath done that which he spake by his servant Elijah . * So Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab #Ach #ab # in Jezreel Yizr @#e #l #, and all his great men , and his kinsfolks , and his priests , until he left him none remaining .
