2 Kings 9:1-6

1And Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up thy loins, and take this vial of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-Gilead.

2And when thou art come thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him rise up from among his brethren, and bring him to an inner chamber;

3then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head and say, Thus saith Jehovah: I have anointed thee king over Israel; and open the door, and flee, and tarry not.

4And the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth-Gilead.

5And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting. And he said, I have an errand to thee, captain. And Jehu said, To which of all of us? And he said, To thee, captain.

6And he rose up and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah the 1God of Israel: I have anointed thee king over the people of Jehovah, over Israel.
