And Jehu cometh in to Jezreel, and Jezebel hath heard, and putteth her eyes in paint and maketh right her head, and looketh out through the window.

And Jehu hath come into the gate, and she saith, 'Was there peace [to] Zimri -- slayer of his lord?'

Wise in heart and strong in power -- Who hath hardened toward Him and is at peace?

Put on, I pray thee, excellency and loftiness, Yea, honour and beauty put on.

Scatter abroad the wrath of thine anger, And see every proud one, and make him low.

Before destruction [is] pride, And before stumbling -- a haughty spirit.'

Before destruction the heart of man is high, And before honour [is] humility.

Therefore, hear a word of Jehovah, ye men of scorning, Ruling this people that [is] in Jerusalem.
