2 Kings 9:14-24

9:14

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>_.

9:15

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}

9:16

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>_.

9:17

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>_?

9:18

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)_.

9:19

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.

9:20

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}

9:21

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}

9:22

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>_?

9:23

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>_.

9:24

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}

Hosea 1:4

1:4

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Call
<07121> (8798)

his name
<08034>

Jezreel
<03157>_;

for yet a little
<04592>

[while], and I will avenge
<06485> (8804)

the blood
<01818>

of Jezreel
<03157>

upon the house
<01004>

of Jehu
<03058>_,

and will cause to cease
<07673> (8689)

the kingdom
<04468>

of the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{avenge: Heb. visit}
