II Kings 9:22-26
"Now it happened, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, 'Is it peace, Jehu?' So he answered, 'What peace, as long as the harlotries of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft are so many?'"
"Then Joram turned around and fled, and said to Ahaziah, 'Treachery, Ahaziah!'"
"Now Jehu drew his bow with full strength and shot Jehoram between his arms; and the arrow came out at his heart, and he sank down in his chariot."
"Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, 'Pick him up, and throw him into the tract of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for remember, when you and I were riding together behind Ahab his father, that the Lord laid this burden upon him.'"
"'"Surely I saw yesterday the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons," says the Lord, "and I will repay you in this plot," says the Lord. Now therefore, take and throw him on the plot of ground, according to the word of the Lord.'"
(Firstly, Jehoram is another name for Joram. They are the same person here. Secondly, I do apologize for continually fitting two chapters into one. I will not have time to do this tomorrow, so I'm trying to make up for it here.)
