Inasmuch as I exalted you from the dust and made you ruler of my people Israel, but you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have caused my people Israel to sin, provoking me to anger by their sins, (A)I will burn up what is left of Baasha and his house; I will make your house like that of Jeroboam, son of Nebat:

(B)One of Baasha’s line who dies in the city,
    dogs will devour;
One who dies in the field,
    the birds of the sky will devour.

“I lifted you up from the dust(A) and appointed you ruler(B) over my people Israel, but you followed the ways of Jeroboam and caused(C) my people Israel to sin and to arouse my anger by their sins. So I am about to wipe out Baasha(D) and his house,(E) and I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat. Dogs(F) will eat those belonging to Baasha who die in the city, and birds(G) will feed on those who die in the country.”
