If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [and have the horseman ask them whether they are coming in peace]

Jehoram is instructing this messenger to leave out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [Are you coming in peace]
