2 Kings 9:32-34
New English Translation
32 He looked up at the window and said, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three[a] eunuchs looked down at him. 33 He said, “Throw her down!” So they threw her down, and when she hit the ground,[b] her blood splattered against the wall and the horses, and Jehu drove his chariot over her.[c] 34 He went inside and had a meal.[d] Then he said, “Dispose of this accursed woman’s corpse. Bury her, for after all, she was a king’s daughter.”[e]
