Ntchimi zitesi 400 zikaphalira Ahabu kuti wamuthereska Ŵaasiriya, kweni Mikaya ntchimi ya Yehova, yikaphalira Yehoshafati kuti wamuluza. Ahabu wakafwira ku nkhondo ndipo Yehoshafati wakawelera mu mulomo wa mbuzi. Yehoshafati wakati wafika ku Yerusalemu, Yehu wakamuchenya chifukwa cha kukolerana na Ahabu. Ndipouli Yehu, mwana wa Hanani wakaphalira Yehoshafati kuti: ‘Kawoneka kauwemi mwa imwe.’​—2 Mid. 18:4, 5, 18-22, 33, 34; 19:1-3.
