2 Chronicles 22:9

And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom.

KJV

Ipsum quoque perquirens Ochoziam, comprehendit latitantem in Samaria : adductumque ad se, occidit : et sepelierunt eum, eo quod esset filius Josaphat, qui quæsierat Dominum in toto corde suo. Nec erat ultra spes aliqua ut de stirpe quis regnaret Ochoziæ :

Vulgate

καὶ εἶπεν τοῦ ζητῆσαι τὸν Ὀχοζείαν· καὶ κατέλαβον αὐτὸν ἰατρευόμενον ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ καὶ ἤγαγον αὐτὸν πρὸς Ἰού, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτόν. καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτόν, ὅτι εἶπαν Υἱὸς Ἰωσαφάτ ἐστιν, ὃς ἐζήτησεν τὸν κύριον ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ· καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἐν οἴκῳ Ὀχοζεία κατισχῦσαι δύναμιν περὶ τῆς βασιλείας.

LXX

And he sought Ahaziah, and they caught him (now he was hiding in Samaria), and they brought him to Jehu, and slew him; and they buried him, for they said, He is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought Jehovah with all his heart. And the house of Ahaziah had no power to hold the kingdom.
