1
The word of the Lord came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,
2
"Since I exalted you out of the dust and made you leader over my people Israel, and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam, and have caused my people Israel to sin, provoking me to anger with their sins,
3
therefore, I will consume Baasha and his house, and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat.
4
Anyone belonging to Baasha who dies in the city the dogs shall eat; and anyone of his who dies in the field the birds of the air shall eat."
