9AND ELISHA the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets and said to him, Gird up your loins, take this flask of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead.H477H5030H7121H259H1121H5030H559H2296H4975H3947H6378H8081H3027H3212H7433H1568 2When you arrive, look there for Jehu son of Jehoshaphat son of Nimshi; and go in and have him arise from among his brethren and lead him to an inner chamber.H935H7200H3058H1121H3092H1121H5250H935H6965H8432H251H935H2315H2315 3Then take the cruse of oil and pour it on his head and say, Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you king over Israel. Then open the door and flee; do not tarry.H3947H6378H8081H3332H7218H559H559H3068H4886H4428H3478H6605H1817H5127H2442 4So the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth-gilead.H5288H5288H5030H3212H7433H1568 5And when he came, the captains of the army were sitting outside; and he said, I have a message for you, O captain. Jehu said, To which of us? And he said, To you, O captain.H935H8269H2428H3427H559H1697H8269H3058H559H559H8269 6And Jehu arose, and they went into the house. And the prophet poured the oil on Jehu's head and said to him, Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: I have anointed you king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.H6965H935H1004H3332H8081H7218H559H559H3068H430H3478H4886H4428H5971H3068H3478 7You shall strike down the house of Ahab your master, that I may avenge the blood of My servants the prophets and of all the servants of the Lord [who have died] at the hands of Jezebel.H5221H1004H256H113H5358H1818H5650H5030H1818H5650H3068H3027H348 8For the whole house of Ahab shall perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, bond or free, in Israel.H1004H256H6H3772H256H8366H7023H6113H5800H3478 9I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat and like the house of Baasha son of Ahijah.H5414H1004H256H1004H3379H1121H5028H1004H1201H1121H281 10And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel, and none shall bury her. And he opened the door and fled. [Fulfilled in II Kings 9:33-37.]H3611H398H348H2506H3157H6912H6605H1817H5127 11When Jehu came out to the servants of his master, one said to him, Is all well? Why did this mad fellow come to you? And he said to them, You know that class of man and what he would say.H3058H3318H5650H113H559H7965H935H7696H559H3045H376H7879 12And they said, That is false; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus he spoke to me, saying, Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you king over Israel.H559H8267H5046H559H559H559H559H3068H4886H4428H3478 13Then they hastily took every man his garment and put it [for a cushion] under Jehu on the top of the [outside] stairs, and blew with trumpets, saying, Jehu is king!H4116H3947H376H899H7760H1634H4609H8628H7782H559H3058H4427 14So Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram [to dethrone and slay him]. Now Joram was holding Ramoth-gilead, he and all Israel, against Hazael king of Syria,H3058H1121H3092H1121H5250H7194H3141H3141H8104H7433H1568H3478H6440H2371H4428H758 15But King Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Jehu said, If this is your mind, let no one make his escape from the city [Ramoth-gilead] to go and tell it in Jezreel [the capital].H4428H3088H7725H7495H3157H4347H761H5221H3898H2371H4428H758H3058H559H3426H5315H408H3318H6412H5892H3212H5046H3157 16So Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.H3058H7392H3212H3157H3141H7901H274H4428H3063H3381H7200H3141 17A watchman on the tower in Jezreel spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Send a horseman to meet them and have him ask, Do you come in peace?H5975H6822H4026H3157H7200H8229H3058H935H559H7200H8229H3088H559H3947H7395H7971H7125H559H7965 18So one on horseback went to meet him and said, Thus says the king: Is it peace? And Jehu said, What have you to do with peace? Rein in behind me. And the watchman reported, The messenger came to them, but he does not return.H3212H7392H5483H7125H559H559H4428H7965H3058H559H7965H5437H310H6822H5046H559H4397H935H7725 19Then Joram sent out a second man on horseback, who came to them and said, Thus says the king: Is it peace? Jehu replied, What have you to do with peace? Ride behind me.H7971H8145H7392H5483H935H559H559H4428H7965H3058H559H7965H5437H310 20And the watchman reported, He came to them, but does not return; also the driving is like the driving of Jehu son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously.H6822H5046H559H935H7725H4491H4491H3058H1121H5250H5090H7697 21Joram said, Make ready. When his chariot was made ready, Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot. Thus they went out to meet Jehu and met him in the field of Naboth the Jezreelite.H3088H559H631H7393H631H3088H4428H3478H274H4428H3063H3318H376H7393H3318H7125H3058H4672H2513H5022H3158 22When Joram saw Jehu, he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, How can peace exist as long as the fornications of your mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?H3088H7200H3058H559H7965H3058H559H7965H5704H2183H517H348H3785H7227 23Then Joram reined about and fled, and he said to Ahaziah, Treachery, Ahaziah!H3088H2015H3027H5127H559H274H4820H274 24But Jehu drew his bow with his full strength and shot Joram between his shoulders; and the arrow went out through his heart, and he sank down in his chariot.H3058H7198H4390H3027H5221H3088H2220H2678H3318H3820H3766H7393 25Then said Jehu to Bidkar his captain, Take [Joram] up and cast him in the plot of Naboth the Jezreelite's field; for remember how, when I and you rode together after Ahab his father, the Lord uttered this prophecy against him:H559H920H7991H5375H7993H2513H7704H5022H3158H2142H7392H6776H310H256H1H3068H5375H4853 26As surely as I saw yesterday the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons, says the Lord, I will repay you on this plot of ground, says the Lord. Now therefore, take and cast Joram into the plot of ground [of Naboth], as the word of the Lord said.H7200H570H1818H5022H1818H1121H5002H3068H7999H2513H5002H3068H5375H7993H2513H1697H3068 27When Ahaziah king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. Jehu followed him and said, Smite him also in the chariot. And they did so at the ascent to Gur, which is by Ibleam. And [Ahaziah] fled to Megiddo and died there.H274H4428H3063H7200H5127H1870H1588H1004H3058H7291H310H559H5221H4818H4608H1483H2991H5127H4023H4191 28His servants took him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulcher with his fathers in the City of David.H5650H7392H3389H6912H6900H1H5892H1732 29In the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, Ahaziah's reign over Judah began.H259H6240H8141H8141H3141H1121H256H274H4427H3063 30Now when Jehu came to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it, and she painted her eyes and beautified her head and looked out of [an upper] window.H3058H935H3157H348H8085H7760H6320H5869H3190H7218H8259H2474 31And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, [Have you come in] peace, you Zimri, who slew his master?H3058H935H8179H559H2174H7965H2026H113 32Jehu lifted up his face to the window and said, Who is on my side? Who? And two or three eunuchs looked out at him.H5375H6440H2474H559H8259H8147H7969H5631 33And he said, Throw her down! So they threw her down, and some of her blood splattered on the wall and on the horses, and he drove over her.H559H8058H8058H1818H5137H7023H5483H7429 34When he came in, he ate and drank, and said, See now to this cursed woman and bury her, for she is a king's daughter.H935H398H8354H559H6485H779H6912H4428H1323 35They went to bury her, but they found nothing left of her except the skull, feet, and palms of her hands.H3212H6912H4672H518H1538H7272H3709H3027 36They came again and told Jehu. He said, This is the word of the Lord which He spoke by His servant Elijah the Tishbite, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel.H7725H5046H559H1697H3068H1696H3027H5650H452H8664H559H2506H3157H3611H398H1320H348 37The corpse of Jezebel shall be like dung upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel, so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.H5038H348H1828H6440H7704H2506H3157H559H348
