2 Kings 9:27-29

The Message

²⁷ Ahaziah king of Judah saw what was going on and made his escape on the road toward Beth Haggan. Jehu chased him, yelling out, “Get him, too!” Jehu’s troops shot and wounded him in his chariot on the hill up to Gur, near Ibleam. He was able to make it as far as Megiddo; there he died.

²⁸ His aides drove on to Jerusalem. They buried him in the family plot in the City of David.

²⁹ In the eleventh year of the reign of Joram son of Ahab, Ahaziah had become king of Judah.
