And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.

Verse 29 is found in chapter 8 of 2 Kings. Ahaziah succeeds Jehoram and maintains the political connection with Ahab’s house. He joins Joram of Israel in a campaign against Hazael of Syria and visits the wounded king at Jezreel. This decision places Judah’s king within the sphere of a dynasty that has already been subjected to prophetic judgment. The chapter directly prepares for Jehu’s revolution. The family and military alliances of Judah’s kings are not presented as neutral matters: they affect their relationship to the history of judgment God is unfolding against Ahab’s house.

Le roi Joram s'en retourna pour se faire guérir à Jizreel des blessures que les Syriens lui avaient faites à Rama, lorsqu'il se battait contre Hazaël, roi de Syrie. Achazia, fils de Joram, roi de Juda, descendit pour voir Joram, fils d'Achab, à Jizreel, parce qu'il était malade.
E il re Gioram se ne ritornò, per farsi medicare in Izreel delle ferite che i Siri gli aveano date in Rama, quando egli combattè contro ad Hazael, re di Siria. Ed Achazia, figliuolo di Gioram, re di Giuda, scese per visitar Gioram, figliuolo di Achab, in Izreel; perciocchè egli era infermo
