Now the watchman H6822 was standing H5975 on the tower H4026 in Jezreel H3157 and he saw H7200 the [fn]company H8229 of Jehu H3058 as he came H935, and he said H559, “I see H7200 a [fn]company H8229.” And [fn]Joram H3088 said H559, “Take H3947 a horseman H7395 and send H7971 him to meet H7122 them and have him [fn]ask H559, ‘Is your intention peace H7965?’”
Then [fn]Joram H3088 said H559, “[fn]Get H631 ready H631.” And they [fn]made H631 his chariot H7393 ready H631. Then [fn]Joram H3088 king H4428 of Israel H3478 and Ahaziah H274 king H4428 of Judah H3063 went H3318 out H3318, each H376 in his chariot H7393, and they went H3318 out H3318 to meet H7122 Jehu H3058 and found H4672 him on the [fn]property H2513 of Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158.
When Ahaziah H274 the king H4428 of Judah H3063 saw H7200 this, he fled H5127 by way H1870 of the garden H1588 house H1004. But Jehu H3058 pursued H7291 him and said H559, “[fn]Shoot H5221 him too H1571, in the chariot H4818.” So they shot him at the ascent H4608 of Gur H1483, which H834 is at Ibleam H2991. But he fled H5127 to Megiddo H4023 and died H4191 there H8033.
