36 Au coucher du soleil, on cria par tout le camp: Chacun à sa ville et chacun dans son pays!
37 Ainsi mourut le roi, qui fut ramené à Samarie; et on enterra le roi à Samarie.
38 Lorsqu’on lava le char à l’étang de Samarie, les chiens léchèrent le sang d’Achab, et les prostituées s’y baignèrent, selon la parole que l’Éternel avait prononcée.
39 Le reste des actions d’Achab, tout ce qu’il a fait, la maison d’ivoire qu’il construisit, et toutes les villes qu’il a bâties, cela n’est-il pas écrit dans le livre des Chroniques des rois d’Israël?
40 Achab se coucha avec ses pères. Et Achazia, son fils, régna à sa place.
