9:30 耶戶到了耶斯列；耶洗別聽見就擦粉、梳頭，從窗戶裡往外觀看。
9:31 耶戶進門的時候，耶洗別說：「殺主人的心利啊，平安嗎？」
9:32 耶戶抬頭向窗戶觀看，說：「誰順從我？」有兩三個太監從窗戶往外看他。
9:33 耶戶說：「把她扔下來！」他們就把她扔下來。她的血濺在牆上和馬上；於是把她踐踏了。
9:34 耶戶進去，吃了喝了，吩咐說：「你們把這被咒詛的婦人葬埋了，因為她是王的女兒。」
9:35 他們就去葬埋她，只尋得她的頭骨和腳，並手掌。
9:36 他們回去告訴耶戶，耶戶說：「這正應驗耶和華藉他僕人提斯比人以利亞所說的話，說：『在耶斯列田間，狗必吃耶洗別的肉；
9:37 耶洗別的屍首必在耶斯列田間如同糞土，甚至人不能說這是耶洗別。』」
30 Then Jehu went to Jezreel. When Jezebel heard about it, she put on eye makeup, arranged her hair and looked out of a window. 31 As Jehu entered the gate, she asked, “Have you come in peace, you Zimri, you murderer of your master?”[e]
32 He looked up at the window and called out, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three eunuchs looked down at him. 33 “Throw her down!” Jehu said. So they threw her down, and some of her blood spattered the wall and the horses as they trampled her underfoot.
34 Jehu went in and ate and drank. “Take care of that cursed woman,” he said, “and bury her, for she was a king’s daughter.” 35 But when they went out to bury her, they found nothing except her skull, her feet and her hands. 36 They went back and told Jehu, who said, “This is the word of the Lord that he spoke through his servant Elijah the Tishbite: On the plot of ground at Jezreel dogs will devour Jezebel’s flesh.[f] 37 Jezebel’s body will be like dung on the ground in the plot at Jezreel, so that no one will be able to say, ‘This is Jezebel.’”

耶洗別遭耶戶殺害，正如以利亞所預言的！
然而說到耶戶和哈薛，其實上帝早就對以利亞說過：「你回去，從曠野往大馬士革去。到了那裡，就要膏哈薛作亞蘭王，又膏寧示的孫子耶戶作以色列王，並膏亞伯‧米何拉人沙法的兒子以利沙作先知接續你。將來躲避哈薛之刀的，必被耶戶所殺；躲避耶戶之刀的，必被以利沙所殺。但我在以色列人中為自己留下七千人，是未曾向巴力屈膝的，未曾與巴力親嘴的。」(列王記上19:15-18)
然而以利亞只膏以利沙作先知接續他，其他兩個王都是在以利沙的作為中成就，現在回頭對照，真是非常有意思！讓我們感覺歷史是在上帝的掌握中，是上帝讓歷史為自己效力，使基督越來越明顯！
