2 Kings 8:25--9:29

In the twelfth
<08147> <06240> <08141>
year
<08141>
of Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
did Ahaziah
<0274>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoram
<03088>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
begin to reign
<04427> (8804)_.
Two
<08147>
and twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
[was] Ahaziah
<0274>
when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;
and he reigned
<04427> (8804)
one
<0259>
year
<08141>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And his mother's
<0517>
name
<08034>
[was] Athaliah
<06271>_,
the daughter
<01323>
of Omri
<06018>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{daughter: or, granddaughter}
And he walked
<03212> (8799)
in the way
<01870>
of the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_,
and did
<06213> (8799)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
as [did] the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_:
for he [was] the son in law
<02860>
of the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>_.
And he went
<03212> (8799)
with Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
to the war
<04421>
against Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
in Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_;
and the Syrians
<0761>
wounded
<05221> (8686)
Joram
<03141>_.
And king
<04428>
Joram
<03141>
went back
<07725> (8799)
to be healed
<07495> (8692)
in Jezreel
<03157>
of the wounds
<04347>
which the Syrians
<0761>
had given
<05221> (8686)
him at Ramah
<07414>_,
when he fought
<03898> (8736)
against Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_.
And Ahaziah
<0274>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoram
<03088>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
went down
<03381> (8804)
to see
<07200> (8800)
Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
in Jezreel
<03157>_,
because he was sick
<02470> (8802)_.
{which...: Heb. wherewith the Syrians had wounded} {Ramah: called Ramoth} {sick: Heb. wounded}
And Elisha
<0477>
the prophet
<05030>
called
<07121> (8804)
one
<0259>
of the children
<01121>
of the prophets
<05030>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Gird up
<02296> (8798)
thy loins
<04975>_,
and take
<03947> (8798)
this box
<06378>
of oil
<08081>
in thine hand
<03027>_,
and go
<03212> (8798)
to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_:
And when thou comest
<0935> (8804)
thither, look out
<07200> (8798)
there Jehu
<03058>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoshaphat
<03092>
the son
<01121>
of Nimshi
<05250>_,
and go in
<0935> (8804)_,
and make him arise up
<06965> (8689)
from among
<08432>
his brethren
<0251>_,
and carry
<0935> (8689)
him to an inner
<02315>
chamber
<02315>_;
{inner...: Heb. chamber in a chamber}
Then take
<03947> (8804)
the box
<06378>
of oil
<08081>_,
and pour
<03332> (8804)
[it] on his head
<07218>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
I have anointed
<04886> (8804)
thee king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_.
Then open
<06605> (8804)
the door
<01817>_,
and flee
<05127> (8804)_,
and tarry
<02442> (8762)
not.
So the young man
<05288>_,
[even] the young man
<05288>
the prophet
<05030>_,
went
<03212> (8799)
to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_.
And when he came
<0935> (8799)_,
behold, the captains
<08269>
of the host
<02428>
[were] sitting
<03427> (8802)_;
and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
I have an errand
<01697>
to thee, O captain
<08269>_.
And Jehu
<03058>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Unto which of all us? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
To thee, O captain
<08269>_.
And he arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
into the house
<01004>_;
and he poured
<03332> (8799)
the oil
<08081>
on his head
<07218>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
I have anointed
<04886> (8804)
thee king
<04428>
over the people
<05971>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
[even] over Israel
<03478>_.
And thou shalt smite
<05221> (8689)
the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>
thy master
<0113>_,
that I may avenge
<05358> (8765)
the blood
<01818>
of my servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
and the blood
<01818>
of all the servants
<05650>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
at the hand
<03027>
of Jezebel
<0348>_.
For the whole house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>
shall perish
<06> (8804)_:
and I will cut off
<03772> (8689)
from Ahab
<0256>
him that pisseth
<08366> (8688)
against the wall
<07023>_,
and him that is shut up
<06113> (8803)
and left
<05800> (8803)
in Israel
<03478>_:
And I will make
<05414> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of Ahab
<0256>
like the house
<01004>
of Jeroboam
<03379>
the son
<01121>
of Nebat
<05028>_,
and like the house
<01004>
of Baasha
<01201>
the son
<01121>
of Ahijah
<0281>_:
And the dogs
<03611>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)
Jezebel
<0348>
in the portion
<02506>
of Jezreel
<03157>_,
and [there shall be] none to bury
<06912> (8802)
[her]. And he opened
<06605> (8799)
the door
<01817>_,
and fled
<05127> (8799)_.
Then Jehu
<03058>
came forth
<03318> (8804)
to the servants
<05650>
of his lord
<0113>_:
and [one] said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, [Is] all well
<07965>_?
wherefore came
<0935> (8804)
this mad
<07696> (8794)
[fellow] to thee? And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Ye know
<03045> (8804)
the man
<0376>_,
and his communication
<07879>_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
[It is] false
<08267>_;
tell
<05046> (8685)
us now. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thus and thus spake
<0559> (8804)
he to me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
I have anointed
<04886> (8804)
thee king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_.
Then they hasted
<04116> (8762)_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
every man
<0376>
his garment
<0899>_,
and put
<07760> (8799)
[it] under him on the top
<01634>
of the stairs
<04609>_,
and blew
<08628> (8799)
with trumpets
<07782>_,
saying
<0559> (8799)_,
Jehu
<03058>
is king
<04427> (8804)_.
{is king: Heb. reigneth}
So Jehu
<03058>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoshaphat
<03092>
the son
<01121>
of Nimshi
<05250>
conspired
<07194> (8691)
against Joram
<03141>_.
(Now Joram
<03141>
had kept
<08104> (8802)
Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_,
he and all Israel
<03478>_,
because
<06440>
of Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_.
But king
<04428>
Joram
<03088>
was returned
<07725> (8799)
to be healed
<07495> (8692)
in Jezreel
<03157>
of the wounds
<04347>
which the Syrians
<0761>
had given
<05221> (8686)
him, when he fought
<03898> (8736)
with Hazael
<02371>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>.)
And Jehu
<03058>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
If it be
<03426>
your minds
<05315>_,
[then] let none
<0408>
go forth
<03318> (8799)
[nor] escape
<06412>
out of the city
<05892>
to go
<03212> (8800)
to tell
<05046> (8687)
[it] in Jezreel
<03157>_.
{Joram: Heb. Jehoram but not in verse sixteen} {had given: Heb. smote} {let none...: Heb. let no escaper go, etc}
So Jehu
<03058>
rode in a chariot
<07392> (8799)_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
to Jezreel
<03157>_;
for Joram
<03141>
lay
<07901> (8802)
there. And Ahaziah
<0274>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
was come down
<03381> (8804)
to see
<07200> (8800)
Joram
<03141>_.
And there stood
<05975> (8802)
a watchman
<06822> (8802)
on the tower
<04026>
in Jezreel
<03157>_,
and he spied
<07200> (8799)
the company
<08229>
of Jehu
<03058>
as he came
<0935> (8800)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
I see
<07200> (8802)
a company
<08229>_.
And Joram
<03088>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
an horseman
<07395>_,
and send
<07971> (8798)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
them, and let him say
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_?
So there went
<03212> (8799)
one on horseback
<07392> (8802) <05483>
to meet
<07125> (8800)
him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_?
And Jehu
<03058>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
What hast thou to do with peace
<07965>_?
turn
<05437> (8798)
thee behind
<0310>
me. And the watchman
<06822> (8802)
told
<05046> (8686)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The messenger
<04397>
came
<0935> (8804)
to them, but he cometh not again
<07725> (8804)_.
Then he sent out
<07971> (8799)
a second
<08145>
on horseback
<07392> (8802) <05483>_,
which came
<0935> (8799)
to them, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_?
And Jehu
<03058>
answered
<0559> (8799)_,
What hast thou to do with peace
<07965>_?
turn
<05437> (8798)
thee behind
<0310>
me.
And the watchman
<06822> (8802)
told
<05046> (8686)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
He came
<0935> (8804)
even unto them, and cometh not again
<07725> (8804)_:
and the driving
<04491>
[is] like the driving
<04491>
of Jehu
<03058>
the son
<01121>
of Nimshi
<05250>_;
for he driveth
<05090> (8799)
furiously
<07697>_.
{driving: or, marching} {furiously: Heb. in madness}
And Joram
<03088>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Make ready
<0631> (8798)_.
And his chariot
<07393>
was made ready
<0631> (8799)_.
And Joram
<03088>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
and Ahaziah
<0274>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
went out
<03318> (8799)_,
each
<0376>
in his chariot
<07393>_,
and they went out
<03318> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
Jehu
<03058>_,
and met
<04672> (8799)
him in the portion
<02513>
of Naboth
<05022>
the Jezreelite
<03158>_.
{Make ready: Heb. Bind} {met: Heb. found}
And it came to pass, when Joram
<03088>
saw
<07200> (8800)
Jehu
<03058>_,
that he said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is it] peace
<07965>_,
Jehu
<03058>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
What peace
<07965>_,
so long as
<05704>
the whoredoms
<02183>
of thy mother
<0517>
Jezebel
<0348>
and her witchcrafts
<03785>
[are so] many
<07227>_?
And Joram
<03088>
turned
<02015> (8799)
his hands
<03027>_,
and fled
<05127> (8799)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
to Ahaziah
<0274>_,
[There is] treachery
<04820>_,
O Ahaziah
<0274>_.
And Jehu
<03058>
drew a bow
<07198>
with his full
<04390> (8765)
strength
<03027>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
Jehoram
<03088>
between his arms
<02220>_,
and the arrow
<02678>
went out
<03318> (8799)
at his heart
<03820>_,
and he sunk down
<03766> (8799)
in his chariot
<07393>_.
{drew...: Heb. filled his hand with a bow} {sunk: Heb. bowed}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
[Jehu] to Bidkar
<0920>
his captain
<07991>_,
Take up
<05375> (8798)_,
[and] cast
<07993> (8685)
him in the portion
<02513>
of the field
<07704>
of Naboth
<05022>
the Jezreelite
<03158>_:
for remember
<02142> (8798)
how that, when I and thou rode
<07392> (8802)
together
<06776>
after
<0310>
Ahab
<0256>
his father
<01>_,
the LORD
<03068>
laid
<05375> (8804)
this burden
<04853>
upon him;
Surely I have seen
<07200> (8804)
yesterday
<0570>
the blood
<01818>
of Naboth
<05022>_,
and the blood
<01818>
of his sons
<01121>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and I will requite
<07999> (8765)
thee in this plat
<02513>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Now therefore take
<05375> (8798)
[and] cast
<07993> (8685)
him into the plat
<02513>
[of ground], according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{blood: Heb. bloods} {plat: or, portion}
But when Ahaziah
<0274>
the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
saw
<07200> (8804)
[this], he fled
<05127> (8799)
by the way
<01870>
of the garden
<01588>
house
<01004>_.
And Jehu
<03058>
followed
<07291> (8799)
after
<0310>
him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Smite
<05221> (8685)
him also in the chariot
<04818>_.
[And they did so] at the going up
<04608>
to Gur
<01483>_,
which [is] by Ibleam
<02991>_.
And he fled
<05127> (8799)
to Megiddo
<04023>_,
and died
<04191> (8799)
there.
And his servants
<05650>
carried
<07392> (8686)
him in a chariot to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and buried
<06912> (8799)
him in his sepulchre
<06900>
with his fathers
<01>
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_.
And in the eleventh
<0259> <06240> <08141>
year
<08141>
of Joram
<03141>
the son
<01121>
of Ahab
<0256>
began Ahaziah
<0274>
to reign
<04427> (8804)
over Judah
<03063>_.
