OET (OET-LV) And_sent Jezebel a_messenger to ʼĒliyyāh to_say thus do [the]_gods and_so more if/because by_this_time tomorrow I_will_make DOM life_your like_life of_one of_them.
So may the gods do to me, and more also
(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent Jezebel messenger to/towards ʼĒliyyāh to=say so do, ʼElohīm and,so more, that/for/because/then/when by_this,time tomorrow make DOM life,your like,life one of,them )
This is a comparison used as an emphatic oath. “May the gods kill me and do even more bad things”
if I do not make your life like the life of one of those dead prophets
(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent Jezebel messenger to/towards ʼĒliyyāh to=say so do, ʼElohīm and,so more, that/for/because/then/when by_this,time tomorrow make DOM life,your like,life one of,them )
Alternate translation: “if I do not kill you like you killed those prophets”
19:2 Speaking a curse, Jezebel reinforced her threat to kill Elijah within a day. Solomon had made a similar declaration regarding his half-brother Adonijah (2:23), and the king of Aram later issued an edict against Elisha with the same formula (2 Kgs 6:31). Jezebel acted with cold-blooded resolve to accomplish her purposes (1 Kgs 21:5-15).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
