And he sought Ahaziah, and they caught him (now he was hiding in Samaria), and they brought him to Jehu, and slew him; and they buried him, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Jehovah with all his heart. And the house of Ahaziah had no power to hold the kingdom.

2 Chronicles 22:9 · ASV

Translations

ASV

And he sought Ahaziah, and they caught him (now he was hiding in Samaria), and they brought him to Jehu, and slew him; and they buried him, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Jehovah with all his heart. And the house of Ahaziah had no power to hold the kingdom.

BBE

And he went in search of Ahaziah; and when they came where he was, (for he was in a secret place in Samaria,) they took him to Jehu and put him to death; then they put his body to rest in the earth, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, whose heart was true to the Lord. So the family of Ahaziah had no power to keep the kingdom.

GRK

Και εζητησε τον Οχοζιαν· και συνελαβον αυτον κρυπτομενον εν Σαμαρεια και εφεραν αυτον προς τον Ιηου· και εθανατωσαν αυτον και εθαψαν αυτον· διοτι ειπον, Υιος του Ιωσαφατ ειναι, οστις εξεζητησε τον Κυριον εξ ολης της καρδιας αυτου. Και ο οικος Οχοζιου δεν ειχε δυναμιν να κρατηση πλεον την βασιλειαν.

KJV

And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom.
