Open this scene in the reader →21‘Look, I am bringing disaster upon you. I will sweep away your descendants and cut off every male belonging to Ahab in Israel, without exception.
22I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat and the house of Baasha son of Ahijah, because you have provoked me to anger and caused Israel to sin.’
23Yahweh also spoke concerning Jezebel, saying, ‘The dogs will eat Jezebel in the territory of Jezreel.’
24The dogs will eat anyone of Ahab’s house who dies in the city, and the birds of the sky will eat anyone of his house who dies in the open country.”
25Surely there was no one like Ahab, who sold himself to do what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, because Jezebel his wife incited him.
26His conduct was utterly abominable: he followed detestable idols, imitating all the practices of the Amorites, whom Yahweh had driven out before the Israelites.
