Ahaziah ^{▼▼tc Most Hebrew mss read “Azariah.” A few Hebrew mss, the LXX, Vulgate, and Syriac read “Ahaziah” (cf. 2 Kgs 8:29).} son of King Jehoram of Judah went down to visit Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he had been wounded. ^{▼▼tn Heb “because he was sick,” presumably referring to the wounds he received in the battle with the Syrians.}

7 God brought about Ahaziah’s downfall through his visit to Joram. ^{▼▼tn Heb “From God was the downfall of Ahaziah by going to Joram.”} When Ahaziah ^{▼▼tn Heb “he”; the referent (Ahaziah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.} arrived, he went out with Joram to meet Jehu son of Nimshi, whom the Lord had commissioned ^{▼▼tn Heb “anointed.”} to wipe out Ahab’s family. ^{▼▼tn Heb “to cut off the house of Ahab.”}
