And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored to life him that was dead, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land.

And they said, It is false; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel.

Then they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew the trumpet, saying, Jehu is king.

So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram kept Ramoth-gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria:

but king Joram was returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If this be your mind, then let none escape and go forth out of the city, to go to tell it in Jezreel.

So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah was come down to see Joram.

\w So|strong="H3588"\w* \w Jehu|strong="H3058"\w* \w rode|strong="H7392"\w* \w in|strong="H4428"\w* \w a|strong="H3588"\w* \w chariot|strong="H7392"\w*, \w and|strong="H3063"\w* \w went|strong="H3212"\w* \w to|strong="H3381"\w* \w Jezreel|strong="H3157"\w*; \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w Joram|strong="H3141"\w* \w lay|strong="H7901"\w* \w there|strong="H8033"\w*. \w And|strong="H3063"\w* \w Ahaziah|strong="H0274"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Judah|strong="H3063"\w* \w was|strong="H4428"\w* \w come|strong="H3212"\w* \w down|strong="H3381"\w* \w to|strong="H3381"\w* \w see|strong="H7200"\w* \w Joram|strong="H3141"\w*. 

Now the watchman stood on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?

\w Now|strong="H3947"\w* \w the|strong="H5921"\w* \w watchman|strong="H6822"\w* \w stood|strong="H5975"\w* \w on|strong="H5921"\w* \w the|strong="H5921"\w* \w tower|strong="H4026"\w* \w in|strong="H5921"\w* \w Jezreel|strong="H3157"\w*, \w and|strong="H7971"\w* \w he|strong="H5921"\w* \w spied|strong="H7200"\w* \w the|strong="H5921"\w* \w company|strong="H8229"\w* \w of|strong="H5921"\w* \w Jehu|strong="H3058"\w* \w as|strong="H3947"\w* \w he|strong="H5921"\w* \w came|strong="H3058"\w*, \w and|strong="H7971"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w*, \w I|strong="H5921"\w* \w see|strong="H7200"\w* \w a|strong="H3947"\w* \w company|strong="H8229"\w*. \w And|strong="H7971"\w* \w Joram|strong="H3088"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Take|strong="H3947"\w* \w an|strong="H3947"\w* \w horseman|strong="H7395"\w*, \w and|strong="H7971"\w* \w send|strong="H7971"\w* \w to|strong="H7971"\w* \w meet|strong="H7125"\w* \w them|strong="H5921"\w*, \w and|strong="H7971"\w* \w let|strong="H7971"\w* \w him|strong="H5921"\w* \w say|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Is|strong="H5975"\w* \w it|strong="H5921"\w* \w peace|strong="H7965"\w*? 

So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he cometh not again.

\w So|strong="H3541"\w* \w there|strong="H1992"\w* \w went|strong="H3212"\w* \w one|strong="H3808"\w* \w on|strong="H7392"\w* \w horseback|strong="H5483"\w* \w to|strong="H5704"\w* \w meet|strong="H7125"\w* \w him|strong="H5046"\w*, \w and|strong="H7725"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Thus|strong="H3541"\w* \w saith|strong="H0559"\w* \w the|strong="H3541"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w*, \w Is|strong="H4100"\w* \w it|strong="H7725"\w* \w peace|strong="H7965"\w*? \w And|strong="H7725"\w* \w Jehu|strong="H3058"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w*, \w What|strong="H4100"\w* \w hast|strong="H3426"\w* \w thou|strong="H5704"\w* \w to|strong="H5704"\w* \w do|strong="H4100"\w* \w with|strong="H3212"\w* \w peace|strong="H7965"\w*? \w turn|strong="H7725"\w* \w thee|strong="H5437"\w* \w behind|strong="H0310"\w* \w me|strong="H7725"\w*. \w And|strong="H7725"\w* \w the|strong="H3541"\w* \w watchman|strong="H6822"\w* \w told|strong="H5046"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, \w The|strong="H3541"\w* \w messenger|strong="H4397"\w* \w came|strong="H3212"\w* \w to|strong="H5704"\w* \w them|strong="H1992"\w*, \w but|strong="H3808"\w* \w he|strong="H5704"\w* \w cometh|strong="H0935"\w* \w not|strong="H3808"\w* \w again|strong="H7725"\w*. 

Then he sent out a second on horseback, which came to them, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu answered, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.

\w Then|strong="H7971"\w* \w he|strong="H7971"\w* \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* \w out|strong="H7971"\w* \w a|strong="H7971"\w* \w second|strong="H8145"\w* \w on|strong="H7392"\w* \w horseback|strong="H5483"\w*, \w which|strong="H4100"\w* \w came|strong="H4428"\w* \w to|strong="H7971"\w* \w them|strong="H7971"\w*, \w and|strong="H7971"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Thus|strong="H3541"\w* \w saith|strong="H0559"\w* \w the|strong="H3541"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w*, \w Is|strong="H4100"\w* \w it|strong="H5437"\w* \w peace|strong="H7965"\w*? \w And|strong="H7971"\w* \w Jehu|strong="H3058"\w* \w answered|strong="H6030"\w*, \w What|strong="H4100"\w* \w hast|strong="H3426"\w* \w thou|strong="H7971"\w* \w to|strong="H7971"\w* \w do|strong="H4100"\w* \w with|strong="H4428"\w* \w peace|strong="H7965"\w*? \w turn|strong="H5437"\w* \w thee|strong="H7971"\w* \w behind|strong="H0310"\w* \w me|strong="H7971"\w*. 

And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously.

\w And|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H3588"\w* \w watchman|strong="H6822"\w* \w told|strong="H5046"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, \w He|strong="H3588"\w* \w came|strong="H7725"\w* \w even|strong="H5704"\w* \w unto|strong="H7725"\w* \w them|strong="H7725"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w cometh|strong="H0935"\w* \w not|strong="H3808"\w* \w again|strong="H7725"\w*: \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H3588"\w* \w driving|strong="H4491"\w* \w is|strong="H1121"\w* \w like|strong="H3808"\w* \w the|strong="H3588"\w* \w driving|strong="H4491"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Jehu|strong="H3058"\w* \w the|strong="H3588"\w* \w son|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Nimshi|strong="H5250"\w*; \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w he|strong="H3588"\w* \w driveth|strong="H5090"\w* \w furiously|strong="H7697"\w*. 

And Joram said, Make ready. And they made ready his chariot. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and found him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite.

And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?

And Jehu drew his bow with his full strength, and smote Joram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.

Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.
