21 Behold, I will bring evil on you, and will utterly sweep you away and will cut off from Ach'av every man-child, and him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Yisra'el:

22 and I will make your house like the house of Yarov`am the son of Nevat, and like the house of Ba`sha the son of Achiyah for the provocation with which you have provoked me to anger, and have made Yisra'el to sin.

23 Of Izevel also spoke the LORD, saying, The dogs shall eat Izevel by the rampart of Yizre`el.

24 Him who dies of Ach'av in the city the dogs shall eat; and him who dies in the field shall the birds of the sky eat.
