*
When Jehu came to Jezreel ,
Jez '
ebel heard of it ;
and she painted her eyes ,
and adorned her head ,
and looked out of the window .
*
And as Jehu entered the gate ,
she said , "
Is it peace ,
you Zimri ,
murderer of your master ?"
*
And he lifted up his face to the window ,
and said , "
Who is on my side ?
Who ?"
Two or three eunuchs looked out at him .
*
He said , "
Throw her down ."
So they threw her down ;
and some of her blood spattered on the wall and on the horses ,
and they trampled on her .
*
Then he went in and ate and drank ;
and he said , "
See now to this cursed woman ,
and bury her ;
for she is a king '
s daughter ."
*
But when they went to bury her ,
they found no more of her than the skull and the feet and the palms of her hands .
*
When they came back and told him ,
he said , "
This is the word of the LORD ,
which he spoke by his servant Eli '
jah the Tishbite , `
In the territory of Jezreel the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jez '
ebel ;
*
and the corpse of Jez '
ebel shall be as dung upon the face of the field in the territory of Jezreel ,
so that no one can say ,
This is Jez '
ebel .'"
