12:009:028 And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and
           buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of
           David.

12:009:029 And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began
           Ahaziah to reign over Judah.

12:009:030 And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and
           she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a
           window.

12:009:031 And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace,
           who slew his master?

12:009:032 And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on
           my side? who?  And there looked out to him two or three
           eunuchs.

12:009:033 And he said, Throw her down.  So they threw her down:  and some
           of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses:  and
           he trode her under foot.

12:009:034 And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said, Go,
           see now this cursed woman, and bury her:  for she is a king’s
           daughter.

12:009:035 And they went to bury her:  but they found no more of her than
           the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.

12:009:036 Wherefore they came again, and told him.  And he said, This is
           the word of the lord, which he spake by his servant Elijah the
           Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the
           flesh of Jezebel: 

12:009:037 And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the face of
           the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not
           say, This is Jezebel.

12:010:001 And Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria.  And Jehu wrote letters,
           and sent to Samaria, unto the rulers of Jezreel, to the
           elders, and to them that brought up Ahab’s children, saying,

12:010:002 Now as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your master’s
           sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses,
           a fenced city also, and armour;

12:010:003 Look even out the best and meetest of your master’s sons, and
           set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s
           house.

12:010:004 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, two kings
           stood not before him:  how then shall we stand?

12:010:005 And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city,
           the elders also, and the bringers up of the children, sent to
           Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou
           shalt bid us; we will not make any king:  do thou that which is
           good in thine eyes.
