2 Kings 9:5-7
5When he came, behold, the captains of the army were sitting, and he said, “I have a word for you, O captain.” And Jehu said, “1For which one of us?” And he said, “For you, O captain.”
6He arose and went into the house, and he poured the oil on his head and said to him, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘2I have anointed you king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.
7You shall strike the house of Ahab your master, 3that I may avenge 4the blood of My servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, 5at the hand of Jezebel.
