2 Kings 8:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴ When Hazael went back, the king asked him, “What did he tell you?”

And Hazael replied, “He told me that you would recover.”

¹⁵ But the next day Hazael took a blanket and dipped it in water and held it over the king’s face until he smothered to death. And Hazael became king instead.

¹⁶ King Jehoram, the son of King Jehoshaphat of Judah, began his reign during the fifth year of the reign of King Joram of Israel, the son of Ahab.
