[a]Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee captain over my people Israel, and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me with their sins,

Behold, I will take away the posterity of Baasha, and the posterity of his house, and will make [b]thine house like the (A)house of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat.

(B)He that dieth of Baasha’s stock in the city, him shall the dogs eat: and that man of him which dieth in the fields, shall the fowls of the air eat.
