2 Kings 9:16-20

16SoH3588 JehuH3058 rodeH7392 in a chariotH7392, and wentH3381 to JezreelH3157; for JoramH3141 layH7901 there. And AhaziahH274 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 was comeH3381 downH3381 to seeH7200 JoramH3141.

17NowH935 the watchmanH6822 stoodH5975 on the towerH4026 in JezreelH3157, and he spied the companyH8229 of JehuH3058 as he cameH935, and saidH559, I seeH7200 a companyH8229. And JoramH3088 saidH559, TakeH3947 an horsemanH7395, and sendH7971 to meetH7125 them, and letH7971 him sayH559, Is it peaceH7965?

18SoH3541 there wentH935 one on horsebackH5483 to meetH7125 him, and saidH559, ThusH3541 saith the kingH4428, Is it peaceH7965? And JehuH3058 saidH559, WhatH4100 hast thou to doH4100 with peaceH7965? turnH7725 thee behindH310 meH413. And the watchmanH6822 toldH5046, sayingH559, The messengerH4397 cameH935 to them, but he cometh notH3808 againH7725.

19Then he sentH7971 outH7971 a secondH8145 on horsebackH5483, whichH4100 cameH935 to them, and saidH559, ThusH3541 saith the kingH4428, Is it peaceH7965? And JehuH3058 answeredH559, WhatH4100 hast thou to doH4100 with peaceH7965? turnH5437 thee behindH310 meH413.

20And the watchmanH6822 toldH5046, sayingH559, He cameH935 evenH5704 unto them, and cometh notH3808 againH7725: and the drivingH4491 is like the drivingH4491 of JehuH3058 the sonH1121 of NimshiH5250; for he driveth furiouslyH7697.
