2 Kings 9:21-36

21Then 1Joram said, “2Get ready.” And they made his chariot ready. 34Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu and found him in the 56property of Naboth the Jezreelite. 22When 7Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?” And he 8answered, “What peace, 9so long as the harlotries of your mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?” 23So 10Joram 11reined about and fled and said to Ahaziah, “12There is treachery, O Ahaziah!” 24And 13Jehu 14drew his bow with his full strength and 15shot 16Joram between his arms; and the arrow went 17through his heart and he sank in his chariot. 25Then Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, “Take him up and 18cast him into the 19property of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite, for I remember when 20you and I were riding together after Ahab his father, that the 21Lord laid this 22oracle against him: 26‘Surely 23I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons,’ says the Lord, ‘and 24I will repay you in this 25property,’ says the Lord.

29Now in 31the eleventh year of Joram, the son of Ahab, Ahaziah became king over Judah.

Who?” And two or three officials looked down at him. 33He said, “Throw her down.” So they threw her down, and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall and on the horses, and he trampled her under foot. 34When he came in, he ate and drank; and he said, “See now to 36this cursed woman and bury her, for 37she is a king’s daughter.” 35They went to bury her, but they found nothing more of her than the skull and the feet and the palms of her hands. 36Therefore they returned and told him. And he said, “This is the word of the Lord, which He spoke by His servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, ‘38In the 39property of Jezreel the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezebel;
