23 Ɛnna ɔhene Yoram twee ne teaseɛnam pɔnkɔ no hama, de dan ɔpɔnkɔ no ani, guanee a ɔreteɛteɛ mu se, “Ɔmammɔfo Ahasia!”

24 Na Yehu twee nʼagyan tow wɔɔ Yoram mmati ntam.

27 Bere a Yudahene Ahasia huu asɛm a asi no, oguan kɔɔ Bet-Hagan. Yehu taa no teɛteɛɛ mu se, “Munkum ɔno nso bi.” Enti wɔtow Ahasia agyan wɔɔ no wɔ ne teaseɛnam mu wɔ Gur atrapoe a ɛbɛn Yibleam.
