And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.
And Jezebel's dead body will be like manure scattered across the field in the area of Jezreel, so that no one will be able to say, 'This is Jezebel.'
This verse prophesies that Queen Jezebel will die such a disgraceful death that her body won't even be recognizable or worthy of identification.

This harsh judgment reflects the severity of her crimes against God and His people, including orchestrating the murder of innocent people like Naboth.
