11. Then Jehu struck down all those belonging to Ahab’s family who were left in Jezreel, so that not one of his leaders, close acquaintances, or priests remained.
12. Next Jehu set out for Samaria. Beth-eked of the Shepherds was on his way.
13. There Jehu met up with the brothers of Judah’s King Ahaziah. "Who are you?" he asked."We’re Ahaziah’s relatives," they replied. "We’ve come down for a visit with the king’s sons and the queen mother’s sons."
14. Jehu then commanded, "Take them alive!" His soldiers took them alive, then slaughtered them at the well of Beth-eked. There were forty-two of them, but not one was left.
15. Jehu departed from there and encountered Rechab’s son Jehonadab. Jehu greeted him, and asked, "Are you as committed to me as I am to you?"Jehonadab responded, "Yes, I am.""If so," said Jehu, "then give me your hand." So Jehonadab put out his hand, and Jehu pulled him up into the chariot.
