New Testament
1 Kings 22:29-40
Ahab Dies in Battle
29Then the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
30The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself when I go into the battle, but you wear your robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.
31The king of Aram had ordered his thirty-two chariot commanders, “Do not fight with anyone small or great, but only against the king of Israel.”
32When the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they said, “That is the king of Israel!” They turned to fight against him, and Jehoshaphat cried for help.
33When the chariot commanders realized that he was not the king of Israel, they stopped pursuing him. 34But a man shot an arrow at random and struck the king of Israel in the seam between two parts of his armor.
So Ahab said to his chariot driver, “Turn around and take me out of the battle, because I have been wounded.”
35The battle went on all that day, and the king was propped up in his chariot facing Aram. He died in the evening, and the blood from his wound ran down onto the floor of the chariot. 36Then, as the sun was going down, a cry went up through the army: “Every man to his own city and every man to his own land!”
37So the king died, and they brought him to Samaria, and they buried the king in Samaria. 38They washed the chariot at the pool of Samaria, and dogs licked up his blood, and the prostitutes bathed there, in fulfillment of the word which the Lord had spoken.
39As for the rest of Ahab's acts and everything he did, and the ivory house he built, and all the cities he built, are they not written in the annals of the kings of Israel? 40Ahab rested with his fathers. Then his son Ahaziah became king in his place.
