Jezebel Loses Her High Position

30When Jehu came to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it, so she painted her eyes with black eye paint and adorned her head and looked through the window. 31Now Jehu had come in the gate, so she said, “Is it peace, O Zimri, murderer of his master?” 32When he lifted up his face to the window, he asked, “Who is with me?” Two or three eunuchs looked down to him. 33So he said, “Throw her down.” So they threw her down, and her blood spattered on the wall and on the horses, and they trampled her. 34Then he came and ate and drank, and said, “Please take care of this cursed one and bury her, for she is the daughter of a king.” 35When they went to bury her, they could not find her, except the skull, the feet, and the palms of the hands. 36They returned and told him, and he said, “This is the word of Yahweh which he spoke by the hand of his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, ‘On the plot of ground of Jezreel, the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezebel.’ ” 37So the dead body of Jezebel became dung on the surface spread on the field in the plot of ground of Jezreel, so one cannot say, “This is Jezebel.”
