2 Kings 9:20Joram said, “Get ready!” They got his chariot ready. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and found him on Naboth the Jezreelite’s land.2 Kings 9:21When Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?” He answered, “What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft abound?”2 Kings 9:22Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, “This is treason, Ahaziah!”2 Kings 9:23Jehu drew his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms; and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.2 Kings 9:24Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, “Pick him up, and throw him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for remember how, when you and I rode together after Ahab his father, Yahweh laid this burden on him:2 Kings 9:25‘Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons,’ says Yahweh; ‘and I will repay you in this plot of ground,’ says Yahweh. Now therefore take and cast him onto the plot of ground, according to Yahweh’s word.”2 Kings 9:26But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. Jehu followed after him, and said, “Strike him also in the chariot!” They struck him at the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. He fled to Megiddo, and died there.2 Kings 9:27His servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his tomb with his fathers in David’s city.2 Kings 9:28In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab, Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.2 Kings 9:29When Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked out at the window.2 Kings 9:30As Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, “Do you come in peace, Zimri, you murderer of your master?”2 Kings 9:31He lifted up his face to the window, and said, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three eunuchs looked out at him.2 Kings 9:32He said, “Throw her down!” So they threw her down; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses. Then he trampled her under foot.2 Kings 9:33When he had come in, he ate and drank. Then he said, “See now to this cursed woman, and bury her; for she is a king’s daughter.”2 Kings 9:34They went to bury her, but they found no more of her than the skull, the feet, and the palms of her hands.2 Kings 9:35Therefore they came back, and told him. He said, “This is Yahweh’s word, which he spoke by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, ‘The dogs will eat the flesh of Jezebel on the plot of Jezreel,2 Kings 9:36and the body of Jezebel will be as dung on the face of the field on Jezreel’s land, so that they won’t say, “This is Jezebel.” ’ ”2 Kings 9:37and the body of Jezebel will be as dung on the face of the field on Jezreel’s land, so that they won’t say, “This is Jezebel.” ’ ”
