4Dogs will eat those belonging to Baasha who die in the city, and the birds of the air will feed on those who die in the country."


In Context

1 Then the word of the Lord came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha:

2 "I lifted you up from the dust and made you leader of my people Israel, but you walked in the ways of Jeroboam and caused my people Israel to sin and to provoke me to anger by their sins.

3 So I am about to consume Baasha and his house, and I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat.

4 Dogs will eat those belonging to Baasha who die in the city, and the birds of the air will feed on those who die in the country."

5 As for the other events of Baasha's reign, what he did and his achievements, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel?

6 Baasha rested with his fathers and was buried in Tirzah. And Elah his son succeeded him as king.
