1 La parole de l’Éternel fut ainsi adressée à Jéhu, fils de Hanani, contre Baescha:
2 Je t’ai élevé de la poussière, et je t’ai établi chef de mon peuple d’Israël; mais parce que tu as marché dans la voie de Jéroboam, et que tu as fait pécher mon peuple d’Israël, pour m’irriter par leurs péchés,
3 voici, je vais balayer Baescha et sa maison, et je rendrai ta maison semblable à la maison de Jéroboam, fils de Nebath.
4 Celui de la maison de Baescha qui mourra dans la ville sera mangé par les chiens, et celui des siens qui mourra dans les champs sera mangé par les oiseaux du ciel.
