Verse 25 is found in chapter 9 of 2 Kings. Jehu arrives at Jezreel and encounters Joram and Ahaziah.

The deaths fulfill the general direction of the judgment pronounced against Ahab’s house. The narrative links the dynasty’s politics, violence, and idolatry: peace cannot be defined simply as the absence of war when the power structure remains committed to practices the narrator considers rebellion against God.

Jéhu dit à son officier Bidkar: Prends-le, et jette-le dans le champ de Naboth de Jizreel; car souviens-t'en, lorsque moi et toi, nous étions ensemble à cheval derrière Achab, son père, l'Eternel prononça contre lui cette sentence:
E Iehu disse a Bidcar, suo capitano: Piglialo, e gittalo nella possessione del campo di Nabot Izreelita; perciocchè tu dei ricordarti come io, e tu, cavalcando a paro a paro con la gente a cavallo, che andava dietro ad Achab, suo padre, il Signore pronunziò contro a lui questo carico:
Então Jeú disse a Bidcar, seu capitão: Toma-o, lança-o no pedaço do campo de Nabote, o jizreelita; porque, lembra-te de que, indo eu e tu juntos a cavalo após seu pai, Acabe, o SENHOR pôs sobre ele esta sentença, dizendo:
