2 Kings 9:22-24

New Living Translation

²² King Joram demanded, “Do you come in peace, Jehu?”

Jehu replied, “How can there be peace as long as the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother, Jezebel, are all around us?”

²³ Then King Joram turned the horses around^[a] and fled, shouting to King Ahaziah, “Treason, Ahaziah!” ²⁴ But Jehu drew his bow and shot Joram between the shoulders. The arrow pierced his heart, and he sank down dead in his chariot.
