2 Chronicles
2 Chronicles 18:33–34
33However, a certain man drew his bow without taking special aim, and he struck the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. So the king said to his charioteer, “Turn arounda and take me out of the battle, for I am badly wounded!”
34The battle raged throughout that day, and the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot facing the Arameans until evening. And at sunset he died.
