So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 40 is found in chapter 22 of 1 Kings. Ahab enters battle in disguise, while Jehoshaphat retains his royal garments. The Syrians initially pursue Jehoshaphat, but eventually an arrow shot at random mortally wounds Ahab. His attempt to avoid the prophecy through disguise fails. The king’s death occurs in a way that emphasizes that Micaiah’s announced word cannot be nullified through human strategies.

Achab se coucha avec ses pères. Et Achazia, son fils, régna à sa place.
Così Achab giacque co’ suoi padri; ed Achazia, suo figliuolo, regnò in luogo suo
Assim dormiu Acabe com seus pais; e Acazias, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
亞哈 與他祖先同睡,他兒子 亞哈謝 接續他作王。
