*
And it came to pass ,
when Joram saw Jehu ,
that he said ,
Is it peace ,
Jehu ?
And he answered ,
What peace ,
so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many ?
*
And Joram turned his hands ,
and fled ,
and said to Ahaziah ,
There is treachery ,
O Ahaziah .
*
And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength ,
and smote Jehoram between his arms ,
and the arrow went out at his heart ,
and he sunk down in his chariot .
*
Then said Jehu to Bidkar his captain ,
Take up ,
and cast him in the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite :
for remember how that ,
when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father ,
the LORD laid this burden upon him ;
*
Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth ,
and the blood of his sons ,
saith the LORD ;
and I will requite thee in this plat ,
saith the LORD .
Now therefore take and cast him into the plat of ground ,
according to the word of the LORD .
*
But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this ,
he fled by the way of the garden house .
And Jehu followed after him ,
and said ,
Smite him also in the chariot .
And they did so at the going up to Gur ,
which is by Ibleam .
And he fled to Megiddo ,
and died there .
*
And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem ,
and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David .
