2Kings 9

9And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets, and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this box of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramothgilead:H477H5030H7121H259H1121H5030H559H2296H4975H3947H6378H8081H3027H3212H7433H15682And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner chamber; / inner…: Heb. chamber in a chamberH935H7200H3058H1121H3092H1121H5250H935H6965H8432H251H935H2315H23153Then take the box of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel. Then open the door, and flee, and tarry not.H3947H6378H8081H3332H7218H559H559H3068H4886H4428H3478H6605H1817H5127H24424So the young man, even the young man the prophet, went to Ramothgilead.H5288H5288H5030H3212H7433H15685And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have an errand to thee, O captain. And Jehu said, Unto which of all us? And he said, To thee, O captain.H935H8269H2428H3427H559H1697H8269H3058H559H559H82696And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the LORD, even over Israel.H6965H935H1004H3332H8081H7218H559H559H3068H430H3478H4886H4428H5971H3068H34787And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD, at the hand of Jezebel.H5221H1004H256H113H5358H1818H5650H5030H1818H5650H3068H3027H3488For the whole house of Ahab shall perish: and I will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel:H1004H256H6H3772H256H8366H7023H6113H5800H34789And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah:H5414H1004H256H1004H3379H1121H5028H1004H1201H1121H28110And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.H3611H398H348H2506H3157H6912H6605H1817H512711Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord: and one said unto him, Is all well? wherefore came this mad fellow to thee? And he said unto them, Ye know the man, and his communication.H3058H3318H5650H113H559H7965H935H7696H559H3045H376H787912And they said, It is false; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel.H559H8267H5046H559H559H559H559H3068H4886H4428H347813Then they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with trumpets, saying, Jehu is king. / is king: Heb. reignethH4116H3947H376H899H7760H1634H4609H8628H7782H559H3058H442714So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramothgilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria.H3058H1121H3092H1121H5250H7194H3141H3141H8104H7433H1568H3478H6440H2371H4428H75815But king Joram was 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 it be your minds, then let none go forth nor escape out of the city to go to tell it in Jezreel. / Joram: Heb. Jehoram but not in verse sixteen / had given: Heb. smote / let none…: Heb. let no escaper go, etc.H4428H3088H7725H7495H3157H4347H761H5221H3898H2371H4428H758H3058H559H3426H5315H408H3318H6412H5892H3212H5046H315716So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah was come down to see Joram.H3058H7392H3212H3157H3141H7901H274H4428H3063H3381H7200H314117And there stood a watchman on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?H5975H6822H4026H3157H7200H8229H3058H935H559H7200H8229H3088H559H3947H7395H7971H7125H559H796518So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he cometh not again.H3212H7392H5483H7125H559H559H4428H7965H3058H559H7965H5437H310H6822H5046H559H4397H935H772519Then he sent out a second on horseback, which came to them, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu answered, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.H7971H8145H7392H5483H935H559H559H4428H7965H3058H559H7965H5437H31020And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously. / driving: or, marching / furiously: Heb. in madnessH6822H5046H559H935H7725H4491H4491H3058H1121H5250H5090H769721And Joram said, Make ready. And his chariot was made ready. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out against Jehu, and met him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite. / Make ready: Heb. Bind / met: Heb. foundH3088H559H631H7393H631H3088H4428H3478H274H4428H3063H3318H376H7393H3318H7125H3058H4672H2513H5022H315822And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?H3088H7200H3058H559H7965H3058H559H7965H5704H2183H517H348H3785H722723And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, There is treachery, O Ahaziah.H3088H2015H3027H5127H559H274H4820H27424And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot. / drew…: Heb. filled his hand with a bow / sunk: Heb. bowedH3058H7198H4390H3027H5221H3088H2220H2678H3318H3820H3766H739325Then said Jehu to Bidkar his captain, Take up, and cast him in the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for remember how that, when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father, the LORD laid this burden upon him;H559H920H7991H5375H7993H2513H7704H5022H3158H2142H7392H6776H310H256H1H3068H5375H485326Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons, saith the LORD; and I will requite thee in this plat, saith the LORD. Now therefore take and cast him into the plat of ground, according to the word of the LORD. / blood: Heb. bloods / plat: or, portionH7200H570H1818H5022H1818H1121H5002H3068H7999H2513H5002H3068H5375H7993H2513H1697H306827But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. And Jehu followed after him, and said, Smite him also in the chariot. And they did so at the going up to Gur, which is by Ibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.H274H4428H3063H7200H5127H1870H1588H1004H3058H7291H310H559H5221H4818H4608H1483H2991H5127H4023H419128And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.H5650H7392H3389H6912H6900H1H5892H173229And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began Ahaziah to reign over Judah.H259H6240H8141H8141H3141H1121H256H274H4427H306330And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window. / painted…: Heb. put her eyes in paintingH3058H935H3157H348H8085H7760H6320H5869H3190H7218H8259H247431And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace, who slew his master?H3058H935H8179H559H2174H7965H2026H11332And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And there looked out to him two or three eunuchs. / eunuchs: or, chamberlainsH5375H6440H2474H559H8259H8147H7969H563133And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot.H559H8058H8058H1818H5137H7023H5483H742934And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said, Go, see now this cursed woman, and bury her: for she is a king's daughter.H935H398H8354H559H6485H779H6912H4428H132335And they went to bury her: but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.H3212H6912H4672H518H1538H7272H3709H302736Wherefore they came again, and told him. And he said, This is the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel: / by: Heb. by the hand ofH7725H5046H559H1697H3068H1696H3027H5650H452H8664H559H2506H3157H3611H398H1320H34837And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.H5038H348H1828H6440H7704H2506H3157H559H348

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
