2 Kings 9:1-5

1Now Elisha the prophet summoned one of 1the sons of the prophets and said to him, “23Get ready and 4take this flask of oil in your hand, and go to 5Ramoth-gilead. 2When you arrive there, then look there for 6Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in and 7have him get up from among his brothers, and bring him to an inner room. 3Then take the flask of oil and pour it on his head, and say, ‘This is what the Lord says: “8I have anointed you king over Israel.”’ Then open the door and flee, and do not wait.”

4So 9the young man, the servant of the prophet, went to Ramoth-gilead. 5When he arrived, behold, the commanders of the army were sitting, and he said, “I have a word for you, commander.” And Jehu said, “10For which one of us?” And he said, “For you, commander.”
