The Relatives of King Ahaziah Are Killed (2KI 10:12-14)

[10:12] Jehu left Jezreel to go to Samaria. On the way, at a place called “Shepherds' Camp,”

[10:13] he met some relatives of the late King Ahaziah of Judah and asked them, “Who are you?” “Ahaziah's relatives,” they answered. “We are going to Jezreel to pay our respects to the children of Queen Jezebel and to the rest of the royal family.”

[10:14] Jehu ordered his men, “Take them alive!” They seized them, and he put them to death near a pit there. There were forty-two people in all, and not one of them was left alive.
