2 Kings 15:25

But Pekah the son of Remaliah, a captain of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the palace of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his room.

KJV

Conjuravit autem adversus eum Phacee filius Romeliæ, dux ejus, et percussit eum in Samaria in turre domus regiæ, juxta Argob et juxta Arie, et cum eo quinquaginta viros de filiis Galaaditarum : et interfecit eum, regnavitque pro eo.

Vulgate

καὶ συνεστράφη ἐπ’ αὐτὸν Φάκεε υἱὸς Ῥομελίου ὁ τριστάτης αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ ἐναντίον οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως μετὰ τοῦ Ἀργὸβ καὶ μετ’ αὐτοῦ Ἀρειά· καὶ μετ’ αὐτοῦ πεντήκοντα ἄνδρες ἀπὸ τῶν τετρακοσίων· καὶ ἐθανάτωσεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ.

LXX

And Pekah the son of Remaliah, his captain, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the castle of the king’s house, with Argob and Arieh; and with him were fifty men of the Gileadites: and he slew him, and reigned in his stead.
