2 Kings 10:11-17
11So Jehu 1killed all who remained of the house of Ahab in 2Jezreel, and all his great men and his acquaintances and his priests, until he left him without a survivor.
12Then he arose and departed and went to Samaria. On the way while he was at 3Beth-eked of the shepherds, 134Jehu 5met the 6relatives of Ahaziah king of Judah and said, “Who are you?” And they 7answered, “We are the 8relatives of Ahaziah; and we have come down 9to greet the sons of the king and the sons of the queen mother.” 14He said, “Take them alive.” So they took them alive and killed them at the pit of Beth-eked, forty-two men; and he left none of them.
15Now when he had departed from there, he 10met 11Jehonadab the son of 12Rechab coming to meet him; and he 13greeted him and said to him, “Is your heart right, as my heart is with your heart?” And Jehonadab 14answered, “It is.” Jehu said, “If it is, 15give me your hand.” And he gave him his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot. 16He said, “Come with me and 16see my zeal for the Lord.” So 17he made him ride in his chariot. 17When he came to Samaria, 18he 19killed all who remained to Ahab in Samaria, until he had destroyed him, 20according to the word of the Lord which He spoke to Elijah.
