22:29 Ahav’s death
29 So so Israel’s King Ahav and Yehudah’s King Yehoshafat left to go and attack Ramot-Gilead, 30 and Ahav told Yehoshafat, “I’ll go into the battle incognito, but you can wear your royal robes.” So Israel’s king changed into ordinary clothes before heading into the battle.
31 Meanwhile, Aram’s king had ordered his thirty-two chariot commanders, “Don’t fight with the rank and file—only attack Israel’s king.” 32 As soon as the chariot commanders saw Yehudah’s King Yehoshafat, they thought to themselves, “Surely that’s Israel’s king.” So then they came over to attack him, but Yehoshafat yelled out, 33 and as soon as they realised that he wasn’t the king of Israel, they stopped chasing him. 34 But one man casually shot an arrow with his and it struck Israel’s king between the plates of his body armour, and he called to his chariot driver, “Turn around and get me out of the battle because I’ve been wounded.”
35 The battle carried on all that day and King Ahav was propped up in his chariot opposite Aram, however he died that evening and the blood from his wound pooled into the bottom of his the chariot.
