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.
