2 Kings 9:27-35

27But whenH834 AhaziahH274 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 sawH7200 this, he fledH5127 by the wayH1870 of the garden-house. And JehuH3058 followed after him, and saidH559, Smite him alsoH1571 in the chariotH4818: and they smote him at the ascentH4608 of Gur, which is by IbleamH2991. And he fledH5127 to MegiddoH4023, and diedH4191 there. 28And his servantsH5650 carried him in a chariot to JerusalemH3389, and buriedH6912 him in his sepulchre with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732.

29And in the eleventh yearH8141 of JoramH3141 the sonH1121 of AhabH256 began AhaziahH274 to reignH4427 over JudahH3063.

30And when JehuH3058 was comeH935 to JezreelH3157, JezebelH348 heardH8085 of it; and she painted her eyesH5869, and attired her headH7218, and lookedH8259 out at the windowH2474. 31And as JehuH3058 entered in at the gateH8179, she saidH559, Is it peaceH7965, thou ZimriH2174, thy master’sH113 murderer? 32And he liftedH5375 up his faceH6440 to the windowH2474, and saidH559, Who is on my side? who? And there lookedH8259 out to him twoH8147 or threeH7969 eunuchsH5631. 33And he saidH559, Throw her down. So they threw her down; and some of her bloodH1818 was sprinkled on the wallH7023, and on the horsesH5483: and he trod her under foot. 34And when he was comeH935 in, he did eatH398 and drinkH8354; and he saidH559, See now to this cursedH779 woman, and buryH6912 her; for she is a king’sH4428 daughterH1323. 35And they went to buryH6912 her; but they foundH4672 no more of her than the skullH1538, and the feetH7272, and the palmsH3709 of her handsH3027.
