1 Kings 22:38-40
Contemporary English Version
38 Some workers washed his chariot near a spring in Samaria, and prostitutes washed themselves in his blood.[a] Dogs licked Ahab's blood off the ground, just as the Lord had warned.
39 Everything else Ahab did while he was king, including the towns he strengthened and the palace he built and furnished with ivory, is written in The History of the Kings of Israel. 40 Ahab died, and his son Ahaziah became king.
