2 Kings 10:11-14

11Jehu also killed every member of Ahab’s household who was left in Jezreel: all the most powerful men, friends, and priests. Not one of them was left.

12Then Jehu left for Samaria. When he came to Beth Eked of the Shepherds,

13he found some relatives of King Ahaziah of Judah. “Who are you?” he asked. They answered, “We’re Ahaziah’s relatives. We’ve come to greet the families of the king and the queen mother.”

14Jehu ordered, “Capture them!” ⌞Jehu’s men⌟ captured and slaughtered 42 of them at a cistern near Beth Eked. They didn’t leave any survivors.
