2 Reyes 9

Bible du Rabbinat (Zadoc Kahn)

1Or, Elisée avait mandé un des jeunes prophètes pour lui dire: "Ceins tes reins, prends cette fiole d'huile en ta main et rends-toi à Ramot-Galaad.

2Arrivé à destination, enquiers-toi de Jéhu, fils de Josaphat, fils de Nimchi. Une fois admis en sa présence, tu l'engageras à se lever du milieu de ses frères d'armes et l'introduiras dans une chambre retirée.

3Prends alors la fiole d'huile, répands-la sur sa tête en disant: Ainsi a parlé l'Eternel: Je te sacre roi d'Israël. Puis ouvre la porte et enfuis-toi sans retard."

4Le jeune homme, le jeune prophète, alla à Ramot-Galaad.

5Dès son arrivée, il trouva les chefs de l'armée siégeant ensemble, et il dit: "J'ai une communication pour toi, ô commandant. Pour qui d'entre nous tous?" demanda Jéhu. "Pour toi, commandant," répondit-il.

6Jéhu se leva, entra dans la chambre, et le prophète lui versa l'huile sur la tête en lui disant: "Ainsi a parlé l'Eternel, le Dieu d'Israël: Je te sacre roi du peuple de l'Eternel, d'Israël.

7Tu frapperas la maison de ton maître Achab, et ainsi je vengerai sur Jézabel le sang de mes serviteurs les prophètes et le sang de tous les serviteurs du Seigneur.

8Toute la maison d'Achab doit périr: j'exterminerai la plus vile créature appartenant à Achab, tout ce qu'il possède de précieux et d'infime en Israël.

9Je ferai ainsi de la maison d'Achab ce que j'ai fait de la maison de Jéroboam, fils de Nebat, et de la maison de Baasa, fils d'Ahiyya.

10Quant à Jézabel, les chiens la dévoreront sur le domaine de Jezreël, et personne ne l'ensevelira." Puis il ouvrit la porte et s'enfuit.

11Jéhu sortit pour rejoindre les serviteurs de son maître. On lui demanda: "Tout est-il bien? Pourquoi cet exalté est-il venu te trouver?" Il leur répondit: "Vous connaissez bien l'homme et ses discours.

12- C'est de la dissimulation, répliquèrent-ils; de grâce, raconte-nous tout." Il repartit: "C'est de telle et telle façon qu'il m'a parlé; il m'a dit: Ainsi a parlé l'Eternel: Je te sacre roi d'Israël."

13Aussitôt ils s'empressèrent tous de prendre leurs manteaux, les étendirent sous lui au haut de l'escalier, et sonnèrent du cor en s'écriant: "Jéhu est roi!"

14C'est de la sorte que Jéhu, fils de Josaphat, fils de Nimchi, complota contre Joram. Celui-ci avait été en observation à Ramot-Galaad, avec tout Israël, en face de Hazaël, roi de Syrie.

15Mais le roi Joram s'en était retourné pour attendre à Jezreël la guérison des blessures que lui avaient faites les Syriens au cours de sa campagne contre Hazaël, roi de Syrie. Jéhu dit: "Si vous le voulez bien, qu'aucun transfuge ne sorte de la ville pour porter des nouvelles à Jezreël."

16Jehu monta sur son char et se rendit à Jezreël, où Joram était alité. Achazia, roi de Juda, était descendu pour rendre visite à Joram.

17Or, le gardien qui se tenait sur la tour de Jezreël remarqua la troupe de Jéhu qui avançait, et il dit: "J'aperçois une troupe." Joram répliqua: "Prends un cavalier, dépêche-le au-devant d'eux pour qu'il demande: Est-ce la paix?"

18Le cavalier se rendit au-devant de Jéhu et dit: "Voici ce que demande le roi: Est-ce la paix?" Jéhu répondit: "Quoi de commun entre toi et la paix? Passe derrière moi." La sentinelle en fit part en disant: "Le messager est arrivé jusqu'à eux, mais n'est point revenu."

19Il envoya un second cavalier, qui, arrivé auprès d'eux, dit: Voici ce que demande le roi: Est-ce la paix?" Jéhu répondit: "Quoi de commun entre toi et la paix? Passe derrière moi."

20La sentinelle en fit part en ces termes: "Il est arrivé jusqu'à eux et n'est point revenu. Or, le train ressemble au train de Jéhu, fils de Nimchi; car il dirige d'une manière désordonnée."

21Joram dit: "Attelle!" On attela son char, et Joram, roi d'Israël, Achazia, roi de Juda, chacun sur son char, sortirent à la rencontre de Jéhu. Ils le joignirent près du domaine de Nabot, le Jezreélite.

22Dès que Joram aperçut Jéhu, il dit: "Est-ce la paix, Jéhu?" Peut-il être question de paix, fut la réponse, tant que durent les débordements de ta mère Jézabel et ses nombreux sortilèges?"

23Joram tourna bride et prit la fuite, en disant à Achazia: "Trahison, Achazia!"

24Jéhu saisit l'arc de sa main, et la flèche atteignit Joram entre les épaules, de façon à transpercer son cœur: il s'affaissa dans son char.

25Jéhu dit à Bidkar, son officier: "Enlève son corps et jette-le à terre dans le champ de Nabot, le Jezreélite; car je me souviens avec toi du jour où nous chevauchions de concert à la suite d'Achab, son père, alors que l'Eternel a émis contre lui cette prédiction:

26A coup sûr, j'ai remarqué hier le sang de Nabot et le sang de ses enfants (dit l'Eternel); je t'en paierai le prix dans ce champ même (dit l'Eternel); enlève-le donc et jette-le dans ce champ, conformément à la parole du Seigneur."

27A cette vue, Achazia, roi de Juda, se mit à fuir dans la direction de la maison du parc; Jéhu se lança à sa poursuite et dit: "Lui aussi, frappez-le!" Il fut atteint dans son char, sur la montée de Gour du côté de Yibleam. Il se réfugia à Meghiddo et y mourut.

28Ses serviteurs le transportèrent à Jérusalem et l'ensevelirent dans son sépulcre, auprès de ses aïeux, dans la Cité de David.

29(C'était dans la onzième année de Joram, fils d'Achab, qu'Achazia avait commencé à régner sur Juda.)

30Puis Jéhu entra à Jezreël. Or, Jézabel avait tout appris: elle s'enduisit les yeux de fard, se para la tête et regarda par la fenêtre.

31Jéhu franchissant la porte, elle s'écria: "Est-ce la paix, Zimri, assassin de ton maître?"

32Il leva les regards vers la fenêtre: "Qui est avec moi, qui?" dit-il. Deux ou trois officiers tournèrent les yeux vers lui,

33et il leur dit: "Précipitez-la!" Ils la précipitèrent. Son sang rejaillit sur le mur et sur les chevaux, et il la foula aux pieds.

34Il pénétra dans la ville, mangea et but; puis il dit: "Voyez donc après cette maudite et ensevelissez-la, puisqu'elle est fille de roi.

35Ils allèrent pour l'ensevelir, mais ne trouvèrent plus d'elle que le crâne, les pieds et les paumes des mains.

36Ils revinrent lui en faire part. Alors il s'écria: "Ainsi s'accomplit cette parole de l'Eternel, énoncée par la bouche de son serviteur, Elie le Tisbite: Sur le domaine de Jezreël, les chiens dévoreront la chair de Jézabel,

37et le cadavre de Jézabel sera étendu sur le domaine de Jezreël, pareil au fumier qui couvre les champs, de telle sorte qu'on ne puisse pas dire: C'est là Jézabel!"

Reina-Valera 1909

1ENTONCES el profeta Eliseo llamó á uno de los hijos de los profetas, y díjole: Ciñe tus lomos, y toma esta alcuza de aceite en tu mano, y ve á Ramoth de Galaad.

2Y cuando llegares allá, verás allí á Jehú hijo de Josaphat hijo de Nimsi; y entrando, haz que se levante de entre sus hermanos, y mételo en la recámara.

3Toma luego la alcuza de aceite, y derrámala sobre su cabeza, y di: Así dijo Jehová: Yo te he ungido por rey sobre Israel. Y abriendo la puerta, echa á huir, y no esperes.

4Fué pues el mozo, el mozo del profeta, á Ramoth de Galaad.

5Y como él entró, he aquí los príncipes del ejército que estaban sentados. Y él dijo: Príncipe, una palabra tengo que decirte. Y Jehú dijo: ¿A cuál de todos nosotros? Y él dijo: A ti, príncipe.

6Y él se levantó, y entróse en casa; y el otro derramó el aceite sobre su cabeza, y díjole: Así dijo Jehová Dios de Israel: Yo te he ungido por rey sobre el pueblo de Jehová, sobre Israel.

7Y herirás la casa de Achâb tu señor, para que yo vengue la sangre de mis siervos los profetas, y la sangre de todos los siervos de Jehová, de la mano de Jezabel.

8Y perecerá toda la casa de Achâb, y talaré de Achâb todo meante á la pared, así al guardado como al desamparado en Israel.

9Y yo pondré la casa de Achâb como la casa de Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, y como la casa de Baasa hijo de Ahía.

10Y á Jezabel comerán perros en el campo de Jezreel, y no habrá quien la sepulte. En seguida abrió la puerta, y echó á huir.

11Después salió Jehú á los siervos de su señor, y dijéronle: ¿Hay paz? ¿para qué entró á ti aquel loco? Y él les dijo: Vosotros conocéis al hombre y sus palabras.

12Y ellos dijeron: Mentira; decláranoslo ahora. Y él dijo: Así y así me habló, diciendo: Así ha dicho Jehová: Yo te he ungido por rey sobre Israel.

13Entonces tomaron prestamente su ropa, y púsola cada uno debajo de él en un trono alto, y tocaron corneta, y dijeron: Jehú es rey.

14Así conjuró Jehú hijo de Josaphat hijo de Nimsi, contra Joram. (Estaba Joram guardando á Ramoth de Galaad con todo Israel, por causa de Hazael rey de Siria.

15Habíase empero vuelto el rey Joram á Jezreel, para curarse de las heridas que los Siros le habían hecho, peleando contra Hazael rey de Siria.) Y Jehú dijo: Si es vuestra voluntad, ninguno escape de la ciudad, para ir á dar las nuevas en Jezreel.

16Entonces Jehú cabalgó, y fuése á Jezreel, porque Joram estaba allí enfermo. También Ochôzías rey de Judá había descendido á visitar á Joram.

17Y el atalaya que estaba en la torre de Jezreel, vió la cuadrilla de Jehú, que venía, y dijo: Yo veo una cuadrilla. Y Joram dijo: Toma uno de á caballo, y envía á reconocerlos, y que les diga: ¿Hay paz?

18Fué pues el de á caballo á reconocerlos, y dijo: El rey dice así: ¿Hay paz? Y Jehú le dijo: ¿Qué tienes tú que ver con la paz? vuélvete tras mí. El atalaya dió luego aviso, diciendo: El mensajero llegó hasta ellos, y no vuelve.

19Entonces envió otro de á caballo, el cual llegando á ellos, dijo: El rey dice así: ¿Hay paz? Y Jehú respondió: ¿Qué tienes tú que ver con la paz? vuélvete tras mí.

20El atalaya volvió á decir: También éste llegó á ellos y no vuelve: mas el marchar del que viene es como el marchar de Jehú hijo de Nimsi, porque viene impetuosamente.

21Entonces Joram dijo: Unce. Y uncido que fué su carro, salió Joram rey de Israel, y Ochôzías rey de Judá, cada uno en su carro, y salieron á encontrar á Jehú, al cual hallaron en la heredad de Naboth de Jezreel.

22Y en viendo Joram á Jehú, dijo: ¿Hay paz, Jehú? Y él respondió: ¿Qué paz, con las fornicaciones de Jezabel tu madre, y sus muchas hechicerías?

23Entonces Joram volviendo la mano huyó, y dijo á Ochôzías: ¡Traición, Ochôzías!

24Mas Jehú flechó su arco, é hirió á Joram entre las espaldas, y la saeta salió por su corazón, y cayó en su carro.

25Dijo luego Jehú á Bidkar su capitán: Tómalo y échalo á un cabo de la heredad de Naboth de Jezreel. Acuérdate que cuando tú y yo íbamos juntos con la gente de Achâb su padre, Jehová pronunció esta sentencia sobre él, diciendo:

26Que yo he visto ayer las sangres de Naboth, y las sangres de sus hijos, dijo Jehová; y tengo de darte la paga en esta heredad, dijo Jehová. Tómalo pues ahora, y échalo en la heredad, conforme á la palabra de Jehová.

27Y viendo esto Ochôzías rey de Judá, huyó por el camino de la casa del huerto. Y siguiólo Jehú, diciendo: Herid también á éste en el carro. Y le hirieron á la subida de Gur, junto á Ibleam. Y él huyó á Megiddo, y murió allí.

28Y sus siervos le llevaron en un carro á Jerusalem, y allá le sepultaron con sus padres, en su sepulcro en la ciudad de David.

29En el undécimo año de Joram hijo de Achâb, comenzó á reinar Ochôzías sobre Judá.

30Vino después Jehú á Jezreel: y como Jezabel lo oyó, adornó sus ojos con alcohol, y atavió su cabeza, y asomóse á una ventana.

31Y como entraba Jehú por la puerta, ella dijo: ¿Sucedió bien á Zimri, que mató á su señor?

32Alzando él entonces su rostro hacia la ventana, dijo: ¿Quién es conmigo? ¿quién? Y miraron hacia él dos ó tres eunucos.

33Y él les dijo: Echadla abajo. Y ellos la echaron: y parte de su sangre fué salpicada en la pared, y en los caballos; y él la atropelló.

34Entró luego, y después que comió y bebió, dijo: Id ahora á ver aquella maldita, y sepultadla; que es hija de rey.

35Empero cuando fueron para sepultarla, no hallaron de ella más que la calavera, y los pies, y las palmas de las manos.

36Y volvieron, y dijéronselo. Y él dijo: La palabra de Dios es ésta, la cual él habló por mano de su siervo Elías Thisbita, diciendo: En la heredad de Jezreel comerán los perros las carnes de Jezabel.

37Y el cuerpo de Jezabel fué cual estiércol sobre la faz de la tierra en la heredad de Jezreel; de manera que nadie pueda decir: Esta es Jezabel.

King James Version

1And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets, and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this box of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead:

2And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner chamber;

3Then take the box of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel. Then open the door, and flee, and tarry not.

4So the young man, even the young man the prophet, went to Ramoth-gilead.

5And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have an errand to thee, O captain. And Jehu said, Unto which of all us? And he said, To thee, O captain.

6And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the LORD, even over Israel.

7And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD, at the hand of Jezebel.

8For the whole house of Ahab shall perish: and I will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel:

9And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah:

10And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.

11Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord: and one said unto him, Is all well? wherefore came this mad fellow to thee? And he said unto them, Ye know the man, and his communication.

12And they said, It is false; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel.

13Then they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with trumpets, saying, Jehu is king.

14So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramoth-gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria.

15But king Joram was returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it be your minds, then let none go forth nor escape out of the city to go to tell it in Jezreel.

16So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah was come down to see Joram.

17And there stood a watchman on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?

18So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he cometh not again.

19Then he sent out a second on horseback, which came to them, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu answered, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.

20And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously.

21And Joram said, Make ready. And his chariot was made ready. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out against Jehu, and met him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite.

22And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?

23And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, There is treachery, O Ahaziah.

24And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.

25Then said Jehu to Bidkar his captain, Take up, and cast him in the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for remember how that, when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father, the LORD laid this burden upon him;

26Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons, saith the LORD; and I will requite thee in this plat, saith the LORD. Now therefore take and cast him into the plat of ground, according to the word of the LORD.

27But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. And Jehu followed after him, and said, Smite him also in the chariot. And they did so at the going up to Gur, which is by Ibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.

28And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.

29And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began Ahaziah to reign over Judah.

30And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window.

31And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace, who slew his master?

32And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And there looked out to him two or three eunuchs.

33And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot.

34And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said, Go, see now this cursed woman, and bury her: for she is a king’s daughter.

35And they went to bury her: but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.

36Wherefore they came again, and told him. And he said, This is the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel:

37And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.

World English Bible

1Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, “Put your belt on your waist, take this vial of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.

2When you come there, find Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in and make him rise up from among his brothers, and take him to an inner room.

3Then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, ‘The LORD says, “I have anointed you king over Israel.”’ Then open the door, flee, and don’t wait.”

4So the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth Gilead.

5When he came, behold, the captains of the army were sitting. Then he said, “I have a message for you, captain.” Jehu said, “To which one of us?” He said, “To you, O captain.”

6He arose, and went into the house. Then he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, “The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have anointed you king over the people of the LORD, even over Israel.

7You must strike your master Ahab’s house, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD, at the hand of Jezebel.

8For the whole house of Ahab will perish. I will cut off from Ahab everyone who urinates against a wall, both him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel.

9I will make Ahab’s house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah.

10The dogs will eat Jezebel on the plot of ground of Jezreel, and there shall be no one to bury her.’” Then he opened the door and fled.

11When Jehu came out to the servants of his lord and one said to him, “Is all well? Why did this madman come to you?” He said to them, “You know the man and how he talks.”

12They said, “That is a lie. Tell us now.” He said, “He said to me, ‘The LORD says, I have anointed you king over Israel.’”

13Then they hurried, and each man took his cloak, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew the trumpet, saying, “Jehu is king.”

14So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram was defending Ramoth Gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria;

15but King Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) Jehu said, “If this is your thinking, then let no one escape and go out of the city to go to tell it in Jezreel.”

16So Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram lay there. Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.

17Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, “I see a company.” Joram said, “Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, ‘Is it peace?’”

18So one went on horseback to meet him, and said, “the king says, ‘Is it peace?’” Jehu said, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!” The watchman said, “The messenger came to them, but he isn’t coming back.”

19Then he sent out a second on horseback, who came to them and said, “The king says, ‘Is it peace?’” Jehu answered, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!”

20The watchman said, “He came to them, and isn’t coming back. The driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously.”

21Joram said, “Get ready!” They got his chariot ready. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot; and they went out to meet Jehu, and found him on Naboth the Jezreelite’s land.

22When Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?” He answered, “What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft abound?”

23Joram turned his hands and fled, and said to Ahaziah, “This is treason, Ahaziah!”

24Jehu drew his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms; and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.

25Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, “Pick him up, and throw him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for remember how, when you and I rode together after Ahab his father, the LORD laid this burden on him:

26‘Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons,’ says the LORD; ‘and I will repay you in this plot of ground,’ says the LORD. Now therefore take and cast him onto the plot of ground, according to the LORD’s word.”

27But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. Jehu followed after him, and said, “Strike him also in the chariot!” They struck him at the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. He fled to Megiddo, and died there.

28His servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his tomb with his fathers in David’s city.

29In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab, Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.

30When Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked out at the window.

31As Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, “Do you come in peace, Zimri, you murderer of your master?”

32He lifted up his face to the window, and said, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three eunuchs looked out at him.

33He said, “Throw her down!” So they threw her down; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses. Then he trampled her under foot.

34When he had come in, he ate and drank. Then he said, “See now to this cursed woman, and bury her; for she is a king’s daughter.”

35They went to bury her, but they found no more of her than the skull, the feet, and the palms of her hands.

36Therefore they came back, and told him. He said, “This is the LORD’s word, which he spoke by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, ‘The dogs will eat the flesh of Jezebel on the plot of Jezreel,

37and the body of Jezebel will be as dung on the surface of the field on Jezreel’s land, so that they won’t say, “This is Jezebel.”’”
