12 Jehu then left there and set out for Samaria.[a] While he was traveling through Beth Eked of the Shepherds, 13 Jehu encountered[b] the relatives[c] of King Ahaziah of Judah. He asked, “Who are you?” They replied, “We are Ahaziah’s relatives. We have come down to see how[d] the king’s sons and the queen mother’s sons are doing.” 14 He said, “Capture them alive!” So they captured them alive and then executed all forty-two of them by the cistern at Beth Eked. He left no survivors.

They answered, “We’re Ahaziah’s(A) relatives. We’ve come down to greet the king’s sons and the queen mother’s(B) sons.”
