2 Kings 9:14-24

14So JehuH3058 the sonH1121 of JehoshaphatH3092 the sonH1121 of NimshiH5250 conspiredH7194 againstH413 JoramH3141. 1Now JoramH3141 2with allH3605 IsraelH3478 was 3defendingH8104 Ramoth-gileadH7433 againstH4480H6440 HazaelH2371 kingH4428 of AramH758, 15but 4KingH4428 5JoramH3088 had returnedH7725 to JezreelH3157 to be healedH7495 of the woundsH4347 whichH834 the ArameansH761 had 6inflictedH5221 on him when he foughtH3898 with HazaelH2371 kingH4428 of AramH758. So JehuH3058 saidH559, “IfH518 this is your mindH5315, then let noH408 oneH6412 escapeH6412 or 7leaveH3318H4480 the cityH5892 to goH1980 tellH5046 it in JezreelH3157.” 16Then JehuH3058 rodeH7392 in a chariotH7392 and wentH1980 to JezreelH3157, for JoramH3141 was lyingH7901 thereH8033. 8AhaziahH274 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had comeH3381 downH3381 to seeH7200 JoramH3141.

17Now the watchmanH6822 was standingH5975 on the towerH4026 in JezreelH3157 and he sawH7200 the 9companyH8229 of JehuH3058 as he cameH935, and saidH559, “I seeH7200 a 10companyH8229.” And JoramH3088 saidH559, “TakeH3947 a horsemanH7395 and sendH7971 him to meetH7122 them and let him sayH559, ‘Is it peaceH7965?’” 18So a horsemanH7392H5483 wentH1980 to meetH7122 him and saidH559, “ThusH3541 saysH559 the kingH4428, ‘Is it peaceH7965?’” And JehuH3058 saidH559, “11WhatH4100 have you to do with peaceH7965? TurnH5437 behindH413H310 me.” And the watchmanH6822 12reportedH5046, “The messengerH4397 cameH935 to them, but he did not returnH7725.” 19Then he sentH7971 out a secondH8145 horsemanH7392H5483, who cameH935 to them and saidH559, “ThusH3541 saysH559 the kingH4428, ‘Is it peaceH7965?’” And JehuH3058 13answeredH559, “WhatH4100 have you to do with peaceH7965? TurnH5437 behindH413H310 me.” 20The watchmanH6822 14reportedH5046, “He cameH935 evenH5704 to them, and he did not returnH7725; and 15the drivingH4491 is like the drivingH4491 of 16JehuH3058 the sonH1121 of NimshiH5250, for he drivesH5090 furiouslyH7697.”

21Then 17JoramH3088 saidH559, “18GetH631 readyH631.” And they madeH631 his chariotH7393 readyH631. 1920JoramH3088 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and AhaziahH274 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 wentH3318 out, eachH376 in his chariotH7393, and they wentH3318 out to meetH7122 JehuH3058 and foundH4672 him in the 2122propertyH2513 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158. 22When 23JoramH3088 sawH7200 JehuH3058, he saidH559, “Is it peaceH7965, JehuH3058?” And he 24answeredH559, “WhatH4100 peaceH7965, 25soH5704 longH5704 as the harlotriesH2183 of your motherH517 JezebelH348 and her witchcraftsH3785 are so manyH7227?” 23So 26JoramH3088 27reinedH2015H3027 aboutH2015H3027 and fledH5127 and saidH559 to AhaziahH274, “28There is treacheryH4820, O AhaziahH274!” 24And 29JehuH3058 30drewH4390 his bowH7198 with his fullH4390 strengthH3027 and 31shotH5221 32JoramH3088 betweenH996 his armsH2220; and the arrowH2678 wentH3318 33throughH3318 his heartH3820 and he sankH3766 in his chariotH7393.
