2 Kings 9:17-21

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.

21And JoramH3088 saidH559, Make readyH631. And they madeH631 readyH631 his chariotH7393. And JoramH3088 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and AhaziahH274 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 wentH3318 outH3318, eachH376 in his chariotH7393, and they wentH3318 outH3318 to meetH7125 JehuH3058, and foundH4672 him in the portionH2513 of NabothH5022 the JezreeliteH3158.
