1 Kings 21:23-29 World English Bible (WEB)

23. Yahweh also spoke of Jezebel, saying, “The dogs will eat Jezebel by the rampart of Jezreel.

24. The dogs will eat he who dies of Ahab in the city; and the birds of the sky will eat he who dies in the field.”

25. But there was no one like Ahab, who sold himself to do that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.

26. He did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.

27. When Ahab heard those words, he tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.

28. Yahweh’s word came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

29. “See how Ahab humbles himself before me? Because he humbles himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days; but I will bring the evil on his house in his son’s day.”
