2 Kings 10:12-14

Modern English Version

Ahaziah’s Forty-Two Brothers Killed

¹² Then he got up and went to Samaria. When he was at Beth Eked of the Shepherds on the way, ¹³ Jehu found the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah and said, “Who are you?”

And they said, “We are brothers of Ahaziah, and we have come down to visit the sons of the king and the sons of the queen mother.”

¹⁴ He said, “Capture them alive.” So they took them alive and slaughtered them at the pit of Beth Eked, forty-two men. Not a man of them remained.
