2 Kings 10:11-17

11So JehuH3058 smote all that remainedH7604 of the houseH1004 of AhabH256 in JezreelH3157, and all his greatH1419 men, and his familiar friends, and his priestsH3548, until he leftH7604 him none remainingH7604.

12And he aroseH6965 and departed, and wentH935 to SamariaH8111. And as he was at the shearing-house of the shepherdsH7462 in the wayH1870, 13JehuH3058 met with the brethren of AhaziahH274 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and saidH559, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of AhaziahH274: and we goH3381 down to salute the children of the kingH4428 and the children of the queen. 14And he saidH559, Take them aliveH2416. And they took them aliveH2416, and slew them at the pitH953 of the shearing-house, even twoH8147 and fortyH705 menH376; neither leftH7604 he any of them.

15And whenH834 he was departed thence, he lighted on Jehonadab the sonH1121 of RechabH7394 comingH5927 to meet him; and he saluted him, and saidH559 to him, Is thy heartH3824 rightH3477, as my heartH3824 is with thy heartH3824? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it be, giveH5414 me thy handH3027. And he gaveH5414 him his handH3027; and he took him up to him into the chariotH4818. 16And he saidH559, Come with me, and seeH7200 my zealH7068 for Jehovah. So they made him rideH7392 in his chariotH7393. 17And whenH834 he cameH935 to SamariaH8111, he smote all that remainedH7604 unto AhabH256 in SamariaH8111, till he had destroyedH8045 him, according to the wordH1697 of Jehovah, which he spake to ElijahH452.
