The killing of Queen Izevel

9:30 The killing of Queen Izevel

Northern kingdom

30Then Yehu came to Yizre’el and Queen Izevel (Jezebel) heard about it. She painted her eyelids and did her hair nicely, then she looked down through the window, 31and when Yehu came in the gate, she said, “Greetings, Zimri the second,[ref] murderer of his master.” 32Yehu looked up at the window and called out, “Who is with me? Who?” And two or three servants poked their heads out windows and looked down to him. 33Okay,” he called up, “toss her out!”

So they tossed her out the window, and some of her blood splashed onto the wall and onto the horses as she was trampled by them. 34Then Yehu and his men went in and ate and drank, and then he said, “Now, you all better attend to that evil woman and bury her, because she’s a king’s daughter.” 35But when they went to bury her, they could only find her skull and her hands and feet. 36They came back inside and told him, “It’s just like what Yahweh said via his servant the Tishbite Eliyyah, when he said that the dogs would eat Izevel’s flesh just outside Yizre’el, 37and then her body would become like dung on the ground and no one would be able to recognise her specific bones.”
