20. When Ahab saw Elijah, he said, “So you have found me, my enemy!”Elijah answered, “Yes, I have found you. You have always chosen to do what the Lord says is wrong.
21. So the Lord says to you, ‘I will soon destroy you. I will kill you and every male in your family, both slave and free.
22. Your family will be like the family of King Jeroboam son of Nebat and like the family of King Baasha son of Ahijah. I will destroy you, because you have made me angry and have led the people of Israel to sin.’
23. “And the Lord also says, ‘Dogs will eat the body of Jezebel in the city of Jezreel.’
24. “Anyone in your family who dies in the city will be eaten by dogs, and anyone who dies in the fields will be eaten by birds.”
