2 Kings 9:36

Wherefore they came again, and told him
How things were, and what only could be found of Jezebel:

and he said, this is the word of the Lord;
or the fulfilment of it:

as in ( 1 Kings 21:23 ) .

2 Kings 9:36 In-Context

34 Then he came and ate and drank, and said, "Please take care of this cursed one and bury her, for she is the daughter of a king."
35 When they went to bury her, they could not find her, except the skull, the feet, and the palms of the hands.
36 They returned and told him, and he said, "This [is] the word of Yahweh which he spoke by the hand of his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, 'On the plot of ground of Jezreel, the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezebel.'"
37 So the dead body of Jezebel became dung on the surface [spread] on the field in the plot of ground of Jezreel, so one cannot say, "This [is] Jezebel."
