31And the king of Syria had commanded the captains over his chariots, thirty-two in number, saying, Fight neither with a small nor a great one, save only with the king of Israel alone.
32And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, Surely this is the king of Israel. And they turned aside against him to fight: and Jehoshaphat cried out.
33And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from following him.
34But a man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints and the armor; wherefore he said unto his chariot-driver. Turn about, and carry me out of the camp; for I am wounded.
35And the battle increased on that day; and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians; but he died in the evening: and the blood of the wound flowed down into the hollow of the chariot.
36And there went a proclamation throughout the camp at the going down of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his own land.
37So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
38And the chariot was washed out at the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood, as they washed his armor: according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.
39Now the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
40So Achab slept with his fathers: and Achazyahu his son became king in his stead.
