ગુજરાતી1 રાજાઓ ૧૬:૪
બાશાના કુટુંબનાં જે માણસો નગરમાં મૃત્યુ પામશે તેઓને કૂતરાં ખાઈ જશે અને જેઓ ખેતરમાં મૃત્યુ પામશે તેઓને પક્ષીઓ ખાઈ જશે.”
हिन्दी1 राजाओं १६:४
बाशा के घर का जो कोई नगर में मर जाए, उसको कुत्ते खा डालेंगे, और उसका जो कोई मैदान में मर जाए, उसको आकाश के पक्षी खा डालेंगे।”

In context

3behold, I will utterly sweep away Baasha and his house; and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

4The dogs will eat Baasha’s descendants who die in the city; and he who dies of his in the field, the birds of the sky will eat.”

5Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

6Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his place.
