7 His going to Joram ^awas God’s occasion for Ahaziah’s downfall; for when he arrived, ^bhe went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, ^cwhom the Lord had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.

8 And it happened, when Jehu was ^aexecuting judgment on the house of Ahab, and ^bfound the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s brothers who served Ahaziah, that he killed them.

9 ^aThen he searched for Ahaziah; and they caught him (he was hiding in Samaria), and brought him to Jehu. When they had killed him, they buried him, “because,” they said, “he is the son of ^bJehoshaphat, who ^csought the Lord with all his heart.” So the house of Ahaziah had no one to assume power over the kingdom.
