So Yehu slew all that remained of the house of Achav in Yizreel, and all his great men, and his kinsfolks, and his kohanim, until he left him none remaining.
Yehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Yhudah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and we go down to salute the children of the king and the children of the queen.
And he said, Take them alive. And they took them alive, and slew them at the pit of the shearing house, even two and forty men; neither left he any of them.
And it came to pass, that, when Yehu was executing judgment upon the house of Achav, and found the princes of Yhudah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to Ahaziah, he slew them.
