2 Kings 10:1-10

And Ahab
<0256>

had seventy
<07657>

sons
<01121>

in Samaria
<08111>_.

And Jehu
<03058>

wrote
<03789> (8799)

letters
<05612>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

to Samaria
<08111>_,

unto the rulers
<08269>

of Jezreel
<03157>_,

to the elders
<02205>_,

and to them that brought up
<0539> (8802)

Ahab's
<0256>

[children], saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{them...: Heb. nourishers}

Now as soon as this letter
<05612>

cometh
<0935> (8800)

to you, seeing your master's
<0113>

sons
<01121>

[are] with you, and [there are] with you chariots
<07393>

and horses
<05483>_,

a fenced
<04013>

city
<05892>

also, and armour
<05402>_;

Look even out
<07200> (8804)

the best
<02896>

and meetest
<03477>

of your master's
<0113>

sons
<01121>_,

and set
<07760> (8804)

[him] on his father's
<01>

throne
<03678>_,

and fight
<03898> (8734)

for your master's
<0113>

house
<01004>_.

But they were exceedingly
<03966> <03966>

afraid
<03372> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, two
<08147>

kings
<04428>

stood
<05975> (8804)

not before
<06440>

him: how then shall we stand
<05975> (8799)_?

And he that [was] over the house
<01004>_,

and he that [was] over the city
<05892>_,

the elders
<02205>

also, and the bringers up
<0539> (8802)

[of the children], sent
<07971> (8799)

to Jehu
<03058>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

We [are] thy servants
<05650>_,

and will do
<06213> (8799)

all that thou shalt bid
<0559> (8799)

us; we will not make any
<0376>

king
<04427> (8686)_:

do
<06213> (8798)

thou [that which is] good
<02896>

in thine eyes
<05869>_.

Then he wrote
<03789> (8799)

a letter
<05612>

the second time
<08145>

to them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

If ye [be] mine, and [if] ye will hearken
<08085> (8802)

unto my voice
<06963>_,

take
<03947> (8798)

ye the heads
<07218>

of the men
<0582>

your master's
<0113>

sons
<01121>_,

and come
<0935> (8798)

to me to Jezreel
<03157>

by to morrow
<04279>

this time
<06256>_.

Now the king's
<04428>

sons
<01121>_,

[being] seventy
<07657>

persons
<0376>_,

[were] with the great men
<01419>

of the city
<05892>_,

which brought them up
<01431> (8764)_.

{mine: Heb. for me}

And it came to pass, when the letter
<05612>

came
<0935> (8800)

to them, that they took
<03947> (8799)

the king's
<04428>

sons
<01121>_,

and slew
<07819> (8799)

seventy
<07657>

persons
<0376>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

their heads
<07218>

in baskets
<01731>_,

and sent
<07971> (8799)

him [them] to Jezreel
<03157>_.

And there came
<0935> (8799)

a messenger
<04397>_,

and told
<05046> (8686)

him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

They have brought
<0935> (8689)

the heads
<07218>

of the king's
<04428>

sons
<01121>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Lay
<07760> (8798)

ye them in two
<08147>

heaps
<06652>

at the entering in
<06607>

of the gate
<08179>

until the morning
<01242>_.

And it came to pass in the morning
<01242>_,

that he went out
<03318> (8799)_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

to all the people
<05971>_,

Ye [be] righteous
<06662>_:

behold, I conspired
<07194> (8804)

against my master
<0113>_,

and slew
<02026> (8799)

him: but who slew
<05221> (8689)

all these?

Know
<03045> (8798)

now
<0645>

that there shall fall
<05307> (8799)

unto the earth
<0776>

nothing of the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)

concerning the house
<01004>

of Ahab
<0256>_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath done
<06213> (8804)

[that] which he spake
<01696> (8765)

by
<03027>

his servant
<05650>

Elijah
<0452>_.
