1 Kings 22:35-38

35While the battle raged throughout the day, the king stood propped up in his chariot opposite the Syrians. He died in the evening; the blood from the wound ran down into the bottom of the chariot.

36As the sun was setting, a cry went through the camp, “Each one should return to his city and to his homeland.”

37So the king died and was taken to Samaria, where they buried him.

38They washed off the chariot at the pool of Samaria (this was where the prostitutes bathed); dogs licked his blood, just as the Lord had said would happen.
