27. When King Ahaziah of Judah saw what was happening, he fled along the road to Beth-haggan. Jehu rode after him, shouting, “Shoot him, too!” So they shot Ahaziah in his chariot at the Ascent of Gur, near Ibleam. He was able to go on as far as Megiddo, but he died there.
28. His servants took him by chariot to Jerusalem, where they buried him with his ancestors in the City of David.
29. Ahaziah had become king over Judah in the eleventh year of the reign of Joram son of Ahab.
30. When Jezebel, the queen mother, heard that Jehu had come to Jezreel, she painted her eyelids and fixed her hair and sat at a window.
31. When Jehu entered the gate of the palace, she shouted at him, “Have you come in peace, you murderer? You’re just like Zimri, who murdered his master!”
32. Jehu looked up and saw her at the window and shouted, “Who is on my side?” And two or three eunuchs looked out at him.
