TSNTyndale Study Notes:

9:1-37 The writer recaps Jehu’s coup that instituted the fourth dynasty in Israel in four phases: (1) Elisha sent a member of the prophetic band to the army camp at Ramoth-gilead to anoint Jehu as the next king of Israel (9:1-10); (2) Jehu’s men learned of the prophet’s visit to their commander and proclaimed Jehu as king (9:11-15); (3) Both Joram and King Ahaziah of Judah were killed (9:16-29); and (4) Jezebel was killed (9:30-37).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

(Occurrence 0) What peace is there, when the idolatrous acts of prostitution and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel are so many?

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was when,saw Yōrām DOM Jehu and=he/it_said ?,peace Jehu and=he/it_said what the,peace until whoredoms Jezebel mother,your and,sorceries,her the,many )

Jehu uses this rhetorical question to state why he is not coming in peace. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “There can be no peace as long as your mother Jezebel practices and promotes so much idolatry in the form of prostitution and witchcraft.”
