1 Kings 22:29-37
29So the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JehoshaphatH3092 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 went upH5927 to Ramoth-gileadH7418H1568. 30And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 toH413 JehoshaphatH3092, “I will disguise myselfH2664 and goH935 into battleH4421, but youH859 wearH3847 your royal robesH899.” So the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 disguised himselfH2664 and wentH935 into battleH4421.
31Now the kingH4428 of AramH758 had orderedH6680 his thirty-twoH7970H8147H559 chariotH7393 commandersH8269, “Do notH3808 fightH3898 with anyoneH854, smallH6996 or greatH1419, exceptH3588H518H854 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478H905.”
When the chariotH7393 commandersH8269 sawH7200 JehoshaphatH3092, theyH1992 saidH559, “SurelyH389 thisH1931 is the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478!” So they turnedH5493 to fightH3898 against himH5921, but JehoshaphatH3092 cried outH2199. 33AndH1961 when the chariotH7393 commandersH8269 sawH7200 thatH3588 heH1931 was notH3808 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, they turned backH7725 from pursuing himH310.
34However, a certain manH376 drewH4900 his bowH7198 without taking special aimH8537, and he struckH5221 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 betweenH996 the jointsH1694H996 of his armorH8302. So the king saidH559 to his charioteerH7395, “Turn aroundH2015H30271 and take me outH3318 ofH4480 the battleH4264, forH3588 I am badly woundedH2470!”
35The battleH4421 ragedH5927 throughout thatH1931 dayH3117, and the kingH4428 wasH1961 propped upH5975 in his chariotH4818 facingH5227 the ArameansH758. And the bloodH1818 from his woundH4347 ran outH3332 ontoH413 the floorH2436 of the chariotH7393, and that eveningH6153 he diedH4191. 36As the sunH8121 was settingH935, the cryH7440 rang outH5674 in the armyH4264:
37So the kingH4428 diedH4191 and was broughtH935 to SamariaH8111, where they buriedH6912 him.
