29 So King Je·hoʹram returned to Jezʹre·el+ to recover from the wounds that the Syrians had inflicted on him at Raʹmah when he fought against King Hazʹa·el of Syria.+ A·ha·ziʹah the son of Je·hoʹram the king of Judah went down to Jezʹre·el to see Je·hoʹram the son of Aʹhab, because he had been wounded.*

21 Je·hoʹram said: “Hitch up!” So his war chariot was hitched up and King Je·hoʹram of Israel and King A·ha·ziʹah+ of Judah each went out in his own war chariot to meet Jeʹhu. They encountered him in the plot of land of Naʹboth+ the Jezʹre·el·ite.

27 When King A·ha·ziʹah+ of Judah saw what was happening, he fled by way of the garden house. (Later Jeʹhu pursued him and said: “Strike him down also!” So they struck him down in the chariot on his way up to Gur, which is by Ibʹle·am.+ But he continued his flight to Me·gidʹdo and died there.

22 Then the inhabitants of Jerusalem made his youngest son A·ha·ziʹah king in his place, for the marauder band that came with the Arabs to the camp had killed all the older ones.+ So A·ha·ziʹah the son of Je·hoʹram began to reign as king of Judah.+
