1 Kings 22:36-39

36As the sun was setting, a cry spread through the army: “Every man to his town. Every man to his land!”

37So the king died and was brought to Samaria, and they buried him there.

38They washed the chariot at a pool in Samaria (where the prostitutes bathed), and the dogs licked up his blood, as the word of the Lord had declared.

39As for the other events of Ahab’s reign, including all he did, the palace he built and adorned with ivory, and the cities he fortified, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel?
