2 Kings 9:18-22
18So a horsemanH7392H5483 rode offH1980 to meet JehuH7122 and saidH559, “This is whatH3541 the kingH4428 asksH559: ‘Have you come in peaceH7965?’”
“WhatH4100 do you know about peaceH7965?” JehuH3058 repliedH559. “Fall inH5437H413 behind meH310.”
And the watchmanH6822H559 reportedH5046, “The messengerH4397 reachedH935H5704 themH1992, but he is notH3808 coming backH7725.”
19So the king sent outH7971 a secondH8145 horsemanH7392H5483, who wentH935 to themH413 and saidH559, “This is whatH3541 the kingH4428 asksH559: ‘Have you come in peaceH7965?’”
“WhatH4100 do you know about peaceH7965?” JehuH3058 repliedH559. “Fall inH5437H413 behind meH310.”
20Again the watchmanH6822H559 reportedH5046, “He reachedH935H5704 themH413, but he is notH3808 coming backH7725. And the charioteerH4491 is driving likeH4491 JehuH3058 sonH1121 of NimshiH5250H35881—he is drivingH5090 like a madmanH7697!”
21“HarnessH631!” JoramH3088 shoutedH559, and they harnessedH631 his chariotH7393.
Then JoramH3088 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and AhaziahH274 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 set outH3318, eachH376 in his own chariotH7393, and metH3318H7122 JehuH3058H4672 on the propertyH2513 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158.
When JoramH3088 sawH7200 JehuH3058, he askedH559, “Have you come in peaceH7965, JehuH3058?”
“HowH4100 can there beH5704 peaceH7965,” he repliedH559, “as long asH7227 the idolatryH21832 and witchcraftH3785 of your motherH517 Jezebel aboundH348?”
