Verse 31 is found in chapter 9 of 2 Kings. Jezebel appears at the window when Jehu enters Jezreel. Her death and the subsequent desecration of her remains graphically fulfill the earlier prophetic word. The narrative recalls her role in promoting idolatry and persecuting the prophets. Dogs consume her remains, so she receives no honorable royal burial. The scene functions as the symbolic conclusion of Jezebel’s influence and as a demonstration that the announced judgment against Ahab’s house reaches even the figure who exercised great influence over it.

Und da Jehu unter das Tor kam, sprach sie: Ist's Simri wohl gegangen, der seinen Herrn erwürgte?
Y como entraba Jehú por la puerta, ella dijo: ¿Sucedió bien a Zimri, que mató a su señor?
Al entrar Jehú por la puerta, ella dijo: «¿Vienes en paz, Zimri, asesino de tu señor?».
Comme Jéhu franchissait la porte, elle dit: Est-ce la paix, nouveau Zimri, assassin de son maître?
E come Iehu entrava nella porta, ella gli disse: O Zimri, ucciditor del tuo signore, le cose vanno elleno bene?
E, entrando Jeú pelas portas, disse ela: Teve paz Zinri, que matou a seu SENHOR?
耶戶 進了城門, 耶洗別 說:「殺主人的 心利 啊,平安嗎?」
