2 Kings 9:16-29

9:16
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>_.
9:17
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>_?
9:18
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)_.
9:19
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.
9:20
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}
9:21
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}
9:22
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>_?
9:23
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>_.
9:24
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}
9:25
Then said
<0559> (8799)
[Jehu] to Bidkar
<0920>
his captain
<07991>_,
Take up
<05375> (8798)_,
[and] cast
<07993> (8685)
him in the portion
<02513>
of the field
<07704>
of Naboth
<05022>
the Jezreelite
<03158>_:
for remember
<02142> (8798)
how that, when I and thou rode
<07392> (8802)
together
<06776>
after
<0310>
Ahab
<0256>
his father
<01>_,
the LORD
<03068>
laid
<05375> (8804)
this burden
<04853>
upon him;
9:26
Surely I have seen
<07200> (8804)
yesterday
<0570>
the blood
<01818>
of Naboth
<05022>_,
and the blood
<01818>
of his sons
<01121>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and I will requite
<07999> (8765)
thee in this plat
<02513>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Now therefore take
<05375> (8798)
[and] cast
<07993> (8685)
him into the plat
<02513>
[of ground], according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{blood: Heb. bloods} {plat: or, portion}
9:27
But when Ahaziah
<0274>
the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
saw
<07200> (8804)
[this], he fled
<05127> (8799)
by the way
<01870>
of the garden
<01588>
house
<01004>_.
And Jehu
<03058>
followed
<07291> (8799)
after
<0310>
him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Smite
<05221> (8685)
him also in the chariot
<04818>_.
[And they did so] at the going up
<04608>
to Gur
<01483>_,
which [is] by Ibleam
<02991>_.
And he fled
<05127> (8799)
to Megiddo
<04023>_,
and died
<04191> (8799)
there.
9:28
And his servants
<05650>
carried
<07392> (8686)
him in a chariot to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and buried
<06912> (8799)
him in his sepulchre
<06900>
with his fathers
<01>
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_.
9:29
And in the eleventh
<0259> <06240> <08141>
year
<08141>
of Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
began Ahaziah
<0274>
to reign
<04427> (8804)
over Judah
<03063>_.
