It was in the eleventh year of Yoram the son of Ach'av that Achazyah had begun his rule over Y'hudah.
30
When Yehu reached Yizre'el, and Izevel heard of it, she put on eye make-up, fixed her hair and looked out the window.
31
As Yehu came through the city gate, she asked, "Are you here in peace, you Zimri, you murderer of your master?"
32
Looking up at the window he said, "Who is on my side? Who?" Two or three officers looked out toward him.
33
He said, "Throw her down!" So they threw her down. Some of her blood splashed onto the wall and the horses, and she was trampled underfoot.
34
He went in, ate and drank, and then said, "Deal with this accursed woman - bury her, because she's a king's daughter."
35
They went to bury her but found no more of her than her skull, feet and hands.
36
So they came back and told him. He said, "This is what ADONAI said through his servant Eliyahu from Tishbe: 'In the field of Yizre'el the dogs will eat the flesh of Izevel;
37
Izevel's corpse in the field of Yizre'el will be like dung on the ground, unrecognizable as Izevel.'"
