2 Kings 10:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² Then Jehu left and went to Samaria. He went on the road to Beth Eked of the Shepherds. ¹³ There Jehu met some relatives of Ahaziah king of Judah. Jehu said, “Who are you?”

They answered, “We are relatives of Ahaziah. We have come down to visit the families of the king and the king’s mother.”

¹⁴ Then Jehu said, “Take them alive!” So they captured Ahaziah’s relatives alive. But they killed them at the well near Beth Eked. There were 42 of them. Jehu did not leave anyone alive.
