(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/(Joram) DOM Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) and=he/it_said ?,peace Yēhūʼ/(Jehu) and=he/it_said what the,peace until whoredoms ʼĪzeⱱel/(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.”
