2 Kings 9:36 In-Context

34 Jehu went inside. He ate and drank. "The LORD put a curse on that woman," he said. "Take proper care of her body. Bury it. After all, she was a king's daughter."
35 So they went out to bury her body. But all they found was her skull, feet and hands.
36 They went back and reported it to Jehu. He told them, "That's what the LORD said would happen. He announced it through his servant Elijah, who was from Tishbe. He said, 'On a piece of land at Jezreel, dogs will eat up Jezebel's body.
37 Her body will be left to rot on that piece of land. So no one will be able to say, "Here's where Jezebel is buried." ' "
