2 Kings 9:14-24

So Jehu
<03058>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoshaphat
<03092>
the son
<01121>
of Nimshi
<05250>
conspired
<07194> (8691)
against Joram
<03141>_.
(Now Joram
<03141>
had kept
<08104> (8802)
Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_,
he and all Israel
<03478>_,
because
<06440>
of Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_.
But king
<04428>
Joram
<03088>
was returned
<07725> (8799)
to be healed
<07495> (8692)
in Jezreel
<03157>
of the wounds
<04347>
which the Syrians
<0761>
had given
<05221> (8686)
him, when he fought
<03898> (8736)
with Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>.)
And Jehu
<03058>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
If it be
<03426>
your minds
<05315>_,
[then] let none
<0408>
go forth
<03318> (8799)
[nor] escape
<06412>
out of the city
<05892>
to go
<03212> (8800)
to tell
<05046> (8687)
[it] in Jezreel
<03157>_.
{Joram: Heb. Jehoram but not in verse sixteen} {had given: Heb. smote} {let none...: Heb. let no escaper go, etc}
So Jehu
<03058>
rode in a chariot
<07392> (8799)_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
to Jezreel
<03157>_;
for Joram
<03141>
lay
<07901> (8802)
there. And Ahaziah
<0274>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
was come down
<03381> (8804)
to see
<07200> (8800)
Joram
<03141>_.
And there stood
<05975> (8802)
a watchman
<06822> (8802)
on the tower
<04026>
in Jezreel
<03157>_,
and he spied
<07200> (8799)
the company
<08229>
of Jehu
<03058>
as he came
<0935> (8800)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
I see
<07200> (8802)
a company
<08229>_.
And Joram
<03088>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
an horseman
<07395>_,
and send
<07971> (8798)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
them, and let him say
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_?
So there went
<03212> (8799)
one on horseback
<07392> (8802) <05483>
to meet
<07125> (8800)
him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_?
And Jehu
<03058>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
What hast thou to do with peace
<07965>_?
turn
<05437> (8798)
thee behind
<0310>
me. And the watchman
<06822> (8802)
told
<05046> (8686)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The messenger
<04397>
came
<0935> (8804)
to them, but he cometh not again
<07725> (8804)_.
Then he sent out
<07971> (8799)
a second
<08145>
on horseback
<07392> (8802) <05483>_,
which came
<0935> (8799)
to them, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_?
And Jehu
<03058>
answered
<0559> (8799)_,
What hast thou to do with peace
<07965>_?
turn
<05437> (8798)
thee behind
<0310>
me.
And the watchman
<06822> (8802)
told
<05046> (8686)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
He came
<0935> (8804)
even unto them, and cometh not again
<07725> (8804)_:
and the driving
<04491>
[is] like the driving
<04491>
of Jehu
<03058>
the son
<01121>
of Nimshi
<05250>_;
for he driveth
<05090> (8799)
furiously
<07697>_.
{driving: or, marching} {furiously: Heb. in madness}
And Joram
<03088>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Make ready
<0631> (8798)_.
And his chariot
<07393>
was made ready
<0631> (8799)_.
And Joram
<03088>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
and Ahaziah
<0274>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
went out
<03318> (8799)_,
each
<0376>
in his chariot
<07393>_,
and they went out
<03318> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
Jehu
<03058>_,
and met
<04672> (8799)
him in the portion
<02513>
of Naboth
<05022>
the Jezreelite
<03158>_.
{Make ready: Heb. Bind} {met: Heb. found}
And it came to pass, when Joram
<03088>
saw
<07200> (8800)
Jehu
<03058>_,
that he said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_,
Jehu
<03058>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
What peace
<07965>_,
so long as
<05704>
the whoredoms
<02183>
of thy mother
<0517>
Jezebel
<0348>
and her witchcrafts
<03785>
[are so] many
<07227>_?
And Joram
<03088>
turned
<02015> (8799)
his hands
<03027>_,
and fled
<05127> (8799)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
to Ahaziah
<0274>_,
[There is] treachery
<04820>_,
O Ahaziah
<0274>_.
And Jehu
<03058>
drew a bow
<07198>
with his full
<04390> (8765)
strength
<03027>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
Jehoram
<03088>
between his arms
<02220>_,
and the arrow
<02678>
went out
<03318> (8799)
at his heart
<03820>_,
and he sunk down
<03766> (8799)
in his chariot
<07393>_.
{drew...: Heb. filled his hand with a bow} {sunk: Heb. bowed}
