2 Kings 1:17-18

New Century Version

¹⁷ So Ahaziah died, just as the Lord, through Elijah, had said he would.

Joram became king in Ahaziah’s place during the second year Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat was king of Judah. Joram ruled because Ahaziah had no son to take his place. ¹⁸ The other things Ahaziah did are written in the book of the history of the kings of Israel.
