2 Kings 9:17-22

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>_?
