They put their heads in baskets and sent them to Jehu in Jezreel.When the messenger arrived, he told Jehu,“ They have brought the heads of the princes.” Then Jehu ordered,“ Put them in two piles at the entrance of the city gate until morning.”The next morning Jehu went out. He stood before all the people and said,“ You are innocent. It was I who conspired against my master and killed him, but who killed all these?Know, then, that not a word the Lord has spoken against the house of Ahab will fail. The Lord has done what he announced through his servant Elijah.”
