2 Chronicles 22:7-9

7 But it was ordained by God that the downfall of Ahaziah should come about through his going to visit Joram. For when he came there, ^ahe went out with Jehoram to meet Jehu the son of Nimshi, ^bwhom the Lord had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab. 8 ^cAnd when Jehu was ^dexecuting judgment on the house of Ahab, he met the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s brothers, who attended Ahaziah, and he killed them. 9 ^eHe searched for Ahaziah, and he was captured while hiding in Samaria, and he was brought to Jehu and put to death. ^fThey buried him, for they said, “He is the grandson of Jehoshaphat, ^gwho sought the Lord with all his heart.” And the house of Ahaziah had no one able to rule the kingdom.
