1 Kings 22:37 In-Context

35 While the battle raged on, King Ahab remained propped up in his chariot, facing the Syrians. The blood from his wound ran down and covered the bottom of the chariot, and at evening he died.

36 Near sunset the order went out through the Israelite ranks: "Each of you go back to your own country and city!"

37 So died King Ahab. His body was taken to Samaria and buried.

38 His chariot was cleaned up at the pool of Samaria, where dogs licked up his blood and prostitutes washed themselves, as the Lord had said would happen.

39 Everything else that King Ahab did, including an account of his palace decorated with ivory and of all the cities he built, is recorded in [The History of the Kings of Israel.]
