2 Kings 9:4-13

4And the youngH5288 manH5288, the youngH5288 prophetH5030, went to Ramoth-Gilead.

5And when he cameH935, behold, the captains of the host were sittingH3427. And he saidH559, I have an errand to thee, captain. And JehuH3058 saidH559, To which of all of us? And he saidH559, To thee, captain.

6And he roseH6965 up and wentH935 into the houseH1004; and he pouredH3332 the oilH8081 on his headH7218, and saidH559 to him, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478: I have anointedH4886 thee kingH4428 over the peopleH5971 of Jehovah, over IsraelH3478.

7And thou shalt smite the houseH1004 of AhabH256 thy masterH113; and I will avengeH5358 the bloodH1818 of my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, and the bloodH1818 of all the servantsH5650 of Jehovah at the handH3027 of JezebelH348.

8And the whole houseH1004 of AhabH256 shall perishH6, and I will cutH3772 off from AhabH256 every male, and him that is shutH6113 up and leftH5800 in IsraelH3478.

9And I will makeH5414 the houseH1004 of AhabH256 as the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, and as the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281.

10And the dogsH3611 shall eatH398 JezebelH348 in the plot of Jizreel, and none shall buryH6912 her. And he openedH6605 the doorH1817 and fledH5127.

11And JehuH3058 cameH935 forthH3318 to the servantsH5650 of his lordH113. And oneH376 saidH559 to him, Is all well? whyH4069 cameH935 this madmanH7696 to thee? And he saidH559 to them, Ye knowH3045 the manH376, and his mind.

12And they saidH559, It is false! tellH5046 us now. And he saidH559, ThusH3541 and thusH3541 spoke he to me sayingH559, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: I have anointedH4886 thee kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.

13Then they hasted and tookH3947 every manH376 his garmentH899, and putH7760 it under him on the very stairs, and blew with trumpetsH7782, and saidH559, JehuH3058 is kingH4427!
