Jehovah's angel commanded Elijah, the prophet from Tishbe, Go and meet the messengers of King Ahaziah. Ask them: 'Why are you going to consult Baalzebub, the god of Ekron? Do you think there is no god in Israel?' Tell the king Jehovah says: 'You will not recover from your injuries. You will in fact die!' Elijah did as Jehovah commanded. read more.
The messengers returned to the king. Why have you come back? He asked. They answered: A man told us to come back and tell you that Jehovah says: 'Why are you sending messengers to consult Baalzebub, the god of Ekron? Is it because you think there is no god in Israel? You will not recover from your injuries. You will die!' What did the man look like? The king asked. He was a hairy man wearing a cloak made of animal skins, tied with a leather belt, they answered.

If I am a man of God, Elijah answered: Let fire come down from heaven and kill you and your men! At once fire came down and killed the officer and his men. The king sent another officer with fifty men, who went up and said to Elijah: Man of God, the king orders you to come down at once! Since I am a man of God, Elijah answered: let fire come down from heaven and kill you and your men! At once the fire of God came down and killed the officer and his men. Once more the king sent an officer with fifty men. He went up the hill, fell on his knees in front of Elijah, and pleaded: Man of God, be merciful to my men and me. Spare our lives! The other officers and their men were killed by fire from heaven. Please, please be merciful to me! The angel of Jehovah (YHWH) said to Elijah: Go down with him. Do not be afraid of him.

Jehu said to Bidkar, his captain: Pick him up, and put him in the field of Naboth the Jezreelite. I remember when you and I were riding together after Ahab, his father. Jehovah offered this prophesy against him. Even as I saw the blood of Naboth and his sons yesterday, 'I will pay you back in this field,' declares Jehovah. Now take him and throw him into the field as Jehovah predicted. When King Ahaziah of Judah saw this, he fled on the road leading to Beth Haggan.

Painting her eyes and dressing her hair with ornaments, she put her head out of the window. As Jehu entered the town, she said: Have you come in peace, you Zimri, who killed his master? Then, looking up to the window, he said: Who is on my side, who? Two or three eunuchs look out at him. He said: Take her and throw her out the window. So they threw her down with force. Her blood splattered on the wall and on the horses. She was crushed under their feet. He came in and ate and drank. He said: Now see to this cursed woman. Bury her body in the earth, for she is a king's daughter. They went to bury her, but they found nothing to bury. There were only the bones of her head, and her feet, and parts of her hands. So they came back and told him about it. He said: This is what Jehovah said by his servant Elijah the Tishbite: 'In the heritage of Jezreel the flesh of Jezebel will become food for dogs. The dead body of Jezebel will be like waste dropped on the face of the earth in the heritage of Jezreel. They will not be able to say: This is Jezebel.'
