2 Kings 9:18-22
18So a horsemanH7392H5483 wentH1980 to meetH7122 him and saidH559, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the kingH4428 saysH559: ‘Is your intention peaceH7965?’” But JehuH3058 saidH559, “12HowH4100 is peaceH7965 any business of yours? TurnH5437 and followH310 me.” And the watchmanH6822 3reportedH5046, “The messengerH4397 cameH935 to them, but he did not returnH7725.” 19Then he sentH7971 a secondH8145 horsemanH7392H5483, and he cameH935 to them and saidH559, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the kingH4428 saysH559: ‘Is your intention peaceH7965?’” And JehuH3058 4answeredH559, “5HowH4100 is peaceH7965 any business of yours? TurnH5437 and followH310 me.” 20And the watchmanH6822 6reportedH5046, “He cameH935 up to them, but he did not returnH7725; and 7the 8drivingH4491 is like the drivingH4491 of 9JehuH3058 the sonH1121 of NimshiH5250, for he drivesH5090 furiouslyH7697.”
21Then 10JoramH3088 saidH559, “11GetH631 readyH631.” And they 12madeH631 his chariotH7393 readyH631. 13Then 14JoramH3088 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and AhaziahH274 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 wentH3318 outH3318, eachH376 in his chariotH7393, and they wentH3318 outH3318 to meetH7122 JehuH3058 and foundH4672 him on the 1516propertyH2513 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158. 22When 17JoramH3088 sawH7200 JehuH3058, he saidH559, “Is your intention peaceH7965, JehuH3058?” And he 18answeredH559, “WhatH4100 ‘peaceH7965,’ 19soH5704 longH5704 as your motherH517 Jezebel’sH348 acts of prostitutionH2183 and witchcraftH3785 are so manyH7227?”
