 9:1 ¶ And Elisha{gr.Elisaie} the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up thy loins, and take this cruse of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth{gr.Remmoth} Gilead{gr.Galaad}.

 9:1 ¶ And Elishaº the prophetº calledºº oneº of the childrenºº of the prophets,º and saidºº unto him, Gird upºº thy loins,º and takeºº thisº boxº of oilº in thine hand,º and goººº to Ramothgilead:ºº

 9:2 And thou shalt enter there, and shalt see there Jehu{gr.Ju} the son of Jehoshaphat{gr.Josaphat} son of Namessi, and shalt go in and make him rise up from among his brethren, and shalt bring him into a secret chamber.

 9:2 And when thou comestºº thither,º look outºº thereº Jehuº the sonº of Jehoshaphatº the sonº of Nimshi,º and go in,ºº and make him arise upºº from amongºº his brethren,º and carryºº him to an innerº chamber;º

 9:3 And thou shalt take the cruse of oil, and pour [it] on his head, and say thou, Thus saith the Lord, I have anointed thee king over Israel: and thou shalt open the door, and flee, and not tarry.

 9:3 Then takeºº the boxº of oil,º and pourºº [it] onº his head,º and say,ºº Thusº saithºº Yahweh,º I have anointedºº thee kingº overº Israel.º Then openºº the door,º and flee,ºº and tarryºº not.º

 9:4 ¶ And the young man the prophet went to Ramoth{gr.Remmoth} Gilead{gr.Galaad}.

 9:4 ¶ So the young man,º [even] the young manº the prophet,º wentººº to Ramothgilead.ºº

 9:5 And he went in, and, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have a message to thee, O captain. And Jehu{gr.Ju} said, To which of all us? And he said, To thee, O captain.

 9:5 And when he came,ºº behold,º the captainsº of the hostº [were] sitting;ºº and he said,ºº I have an errandº toº thee, O captain.º And Jehuº said,ºº Untoº whichº of allºº us? And he said,ºº Toº thee, O captain.º

 9:6 And he arose, and went into the house: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said to him, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I have anointed thee to be king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.

 9:6 And he arose,ºº and wentºº into the house;º and he pouredºº the oilº onº his head,º and saidºº unto him, Thusº saithºº Yahwehº Elohimº of Israel,º I have anointedºº thee kingº overº the peopleº of Yahweh,º [even] overº Israel.º

 9:7 And thou shalt utterly destroy the house of Ahab{gr.Achaab} thy master from before me, and shalt avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezebel{gr.Jezabel},

 9:7 And thou shalt smiteººº the houseº of Ahabº thy adon,º that I may avengeºº the bloodº of my servantsº the prophets,º and the bloodº of allº the servantsº of Yahweh,º at the handºº of Jezebel.º

 9:8 and at the hand of the whole house of Ahab{gr.Achaab}: and thou shalt utterly cut off from the house of Ahab{gr.Achaab} every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel.

 9:8 For the wholeº houseº of Ahabº shall perish:ºº and I will cut offºº from Ahabº him that pissethºº against the wall,º and him that is shut upºº and leftºº in Israel:º

 9:9 And I will make the house of Ahab{gr.Achaab} like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat{gr.Nabat}, and as the house of Baasha{gr.Baasa} the son of Ahijah{gr.Achia}.

 9:9 And I will makeººº the houseº of Ahabº like the houseº of Jeroboamº the sonº of Nebat,º and like the houseº of Baashaº the sonº of Ahijah:º

 9:10 And the dogs shall eat Jezebel{gr.Jezabel} in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.

 9:10 And the dogsº shall eatºº Jezebelº in the portionº of Jezreel,º and [there shall be] noneº to buryºº [her]. And he openedºº the door,º and fled.ºº

 9:11 ¶ And Jehu{gr.Ju} went forth to the servants of his lord, and they said to him, [Is] all well? Why came this mad fellow in to thee? And he said to them, Ye know the man, and his communication.

 9:11 ¶ Then Jehuº came forthºº toº the servantsº of his adon:º and [one] saidºº unto him, [Is] all well?º whereforeº cameºº thisº madºº [fellow] toº thee? And he saidºº untoº them, Yeº knowºº the man,º andº his communication.º

 9:12 And they said, [It is] wrong: tell us now. And Jehu{gr.Ju} said to them, Thus and thus spoke he to me, saying,-- and he said, Thus saith the Lord, I have anointed thee to be king over Israel.

 9:12 And they said,ºº [It is] false;º tellºº us now.º And he said,ºº Thusº and thusº spakeºº he toº me, saying,ºº Thusº saithºº Yahweh,º I have anointedºº thee kingº overº Israel.º

 9:13 And when they heard it, they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with the trumpet, and said, Jehu{gr.Ju} is king.

 9:13 Then they hasted,ºº and tookºº every manº his garment,º and putºº [it] underº him onº the topº of the stairs,º and blewºº with trumpets,º saying,ºº Jehuº is king.ºº

 9:14 So Jehu{gr.Ju} the son of Jehoshaphat{gr.Josaphat} the son of Namessi conspired against Joram, and Joram was defending Ramoth{gr.Remmoth} Gilead{gr.Galaad}, he and all Israel, because of Hazael{gr.Azael} king of Syria.

 9:14 So Jehuº the sonº of Jehoshaphatº the sonº of Nimshiº conspiredºº againstº Joram.º (Now Joramº hadº keptºº Ramothgilead,ºº heº and allº Israel,º becauseºº of Hazaelº kingº of Syria.º

 9:15 And king Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel{gr.Jezrael} of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, in his war with Hazael{gr.Azael} king of Syria. And Jehu{gr.Ju} said, If your heart is with me, let there not go forth out of the city one fugitive to go and report to Jezreel{gr.Jezrael}.

 9:15 But kingº Joramº was returnedºº to be healedºº in Jezreelº ofº the woundsº whichº the Syriansº had givenºº him, when he foughtºº withº Hazaelº kingº of Syria.)º And Jehuº said,ºº Ifº it beº your minds,º [then] let noneº go forthºº [nor] escapeº out ofº the cityº to goººº to tellºº [it] in Jezreel.º

 9:16 And Jehu{gr.Ju} rode and advanced, and came down to Jezreel{gr.Jezrael}; for Joram king of Israel was getting healed in Jezreel{gr.Jezrael} of the arrow-wounds wherewith the Syrians [had] wounded him in Rammath in the war with Hazael{gr.Azael} king of Syria; for he [was] strong and a mighty man: and Ahaziah{gr.Ochozias} king of Judah{gr.Juda} was come down to see Joram.

 9:16 So Jehuº rode in a chariot,ºº and wentººº to Jezreel;º forº Joramº layºº there.º And Ahaziahº kingº of Judahº was come downºº to seeººº Joram.º

 9:17 And there went up a watchman upon the tower of Jezreel{gr.Jezrael}, and saw the dust [made by] Jehu{gr.Ju} as he approached; and he said, I see dust. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Peace.

 9:17 And there stoodºº a watchmanºº onº the towerº in Jezreel,º and he spiedººº the companyº of Jehuº as he came,ºº and said,ºº Iº seeºº a company.º And Joramº said,ºº Takeºº an horseman,º and sendºº to meetººº them, and let him say,ºº [Is it] peace?º

 9:18 And there went a horseman to meet them, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Jehu{gr.Ju} said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn behind me. And the watchman reported, saying, The messenger came up to them, and has not returned.

 9:18 So there wentººº one on horsebackººº to meetººº him, and said,ºº Thusº saithºº the king,º [Is it] peace?º And Jehuº said,ºº Whatº hast thou to do with peace?º turnºº thee behindºº me. And the watchmanºº told,ºº saying,ºº The messengerº cameºº toº them,º but he cometh not again.ººº

 9:19 And he sent another horseman, and he came to him, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Jehu{gr.Ju} said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn behind me.

 9:19 Then he sent outºº a secondº on horseback,ººº which cameºº toº them, and said,ºº Thusº saithºº the king,º [Is it] peace?º And Jehuº answered,ºº Whatº hast thou to do with peace?º turnºº thee behindºº me.

 9:20 And the watchman reported, saying, He came up to them, and has not returned: and the driver drives Jehu{gr.Ju} the son of Namessi, for it is with furious [haste].

 9:20 And the watchmanºº told,ºº saying,ºº He cameºº evenº untoº them, and cometh not again:ººº and the drivingº [is] like the drivingº of Jehuº the sonº of Nimshi;º forº he drivethºº furiously.º

 9:21 And Joram said, Make ready. And one made ready the chariot: and Joram the king of Israel went forth, and Ahaziah{gr.Ochozias} king of Judah{gr.Juda}, each in his chariot, and they went to meet Jehu{gr.Ju}, and found him in the portion of Naboth{gr.Nabuthai} the Jezreelite{gr.Jezraelite}.

 9:21 And Joramº said,ºº Make ready.ºº And his chariotº was made ready.ºº And Joramº kingº of Israelº and Ahaziahº kingº of Judahº went out,ºº eachº in his chariot,º and they went outºº againstººº Jehu,º and metºº him in the portionº of Nabothº the Jezreelite.º

 9:22 And it came to pass when Joram saw Jehu{gr.Ju}, that he said, [Is it] peace, Jehu{gr.Ju}? And Jehu{gr.Ju} said, How [can it be] peace? as yet [there are] the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel{gr.Jezabel}, and her abundant witchcrafts.

 9:22 And it came to pass,º when Joramº sawººº Jehu,º that he said,ºº [Is it] peace,º Jehu?º And he answered,ºº Whatº peace,º so long asº the whoredomsº of thy motherº Jezebelº and her witchcraftsº [are so] many?º

 9:23 And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah{gr.Ochozias}, Treachery, Ahaziah{gr.Ochozias}.

 9:23 And Joramº turnedºº his hands,º and fled,ºº and saidºº toº Ahaziah,º [There is] treachery,º O Ahaziah.º

 9:24 And Jehu{gr.Ju} bent his bow with his full strength, and smote Joram between his arms, and his arrow went out at his heart, and he bowed upon his knees.

 9:24 And Jehuº drew a bowº with his fullºº strength,º and smoteººº Jehoramº betweenº his arms,º and the arrowº went outºº at his heart,ºº and he sunk downºº in his chariot.º

 9:25 And [Jehu{gr.Ju}] said to Badecar his chief officer, Cast him into the portion of ground of Naboth{gr.Nabuthai} the Jezreelite{gr.Jezraelite}, for I and thou remember, riding [as we were] on chariots after Ahab{gr.Achaab} his father, that the Lord took up this burden against him, [saying],

 9:25 Then saidºº [Jehu] toº Bidkarº his captain,º Take up,ºº [and] castºº him in the portionº of the fieldº of Nabothº the Jezreelite:º forº rememberºº how that, when Iº and thouºº rodeºº togetherº afterº Ahabº his father,º Yahwehº laidººº thisº burdenº uponº him;

 9:26 Surely, I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth{gr.Nabuthai}, and the blood of his sons, saith the Lord; and I will recompense him in this portion, saith the Lord. Now then, I pray thee, take him up and cast him into the portion, according to the word of the Lord.

 9:26 Surelyºº I have seenºº yesterdayºº the bloodº of Naboth,º and the bloodº of his sons,º saithºº Yahweh;º and I will requiteºº thee in thisº plat,º saithºº Yahweh.º Nowº therefore takeºº [and] castºº him into the platº [of ground], according to the wordº of Yahweh.º

 9:27 ¶ And Ahaziah{gr.Ochozias} king of Judah{gr.Juda} saw [it], and fled by the way of Baethgan. And Jehu{gr.Ju} pursued after him, and said, [Slay] him also. And one smote him in the chariot at the going up of Ai{gr.Gai}, which is Jeblaam: and he fled to Megiddo{gr.Mageddo}, and died there.

 9:27 ¶ But when Ahaziahº the kingº of Judahº sawºº [this], he fledºº by the wayº of the gardenº house.º And Jehuº followedºº afterº him, and said,ºº Smiteºº him alsoº inº the chariot.º [And they did so] at the going upº to Gur,º whichº [is] byº Ibleam.º And he fledºº to Megiddo,º and diedºº there.º

 9:28 And his servants put him on a chariot, and brought him to Jerusalem, and they buried him in his sepulchre in the city of David.

 9:28 And his servantsº carriedºº him in a chariotºº to Jerusalem,º and buriedºº him in his sepulchreº withº his fathersº in the cityº of David.º

 9:29 And in the eleventh year of Joram king of Israel, Ahaziah{gr.Ochozias} began to reign over Judah{gr.Juda}.

 9:29 And in the eleventhººº yearº of Joramº the sonº of Ahabº began Ahaziahº to reignºº overº Judah.º

 9:30 ¶ And Jehu{gr.Ju} came to Jezreel{gr.Jezrael}; and Jezebel{gr.Jezabel} heard [of it], and coloured her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked through the window.

 9:30 ¶ And when Jehuº was comeºº to Jezreel,º Jezebelº heardºº [of it]; and she paintedººº her face,º and tiredººº her head,º and looked outºº atº a window.º

 9:31 And Jehu{gr.Ju} entered into the city; and she said, Had Zimri{gr.Zambri}, the murderer of his master, peace?

 9:31 And as Jehuº entered inºº at the gate,º she said,ºº [Had] Zimriº peace,º who slewºº his adon?º

 9:32 And he lifted up his face toward the window, and saw her, and said, Who art thou? Come down with me. And two eunuchs looked down towards him.

 9:32 And he lifted upºº his faceº toº the window,º and said,ºº Whoº [is] on my side?º who?º And there looked outºº toº him twoº [or] threeº eunuchs.º

 9:33 And he said, Throw her [down]. And they threw her [down]; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and they trampled on her.

 9:33 And he said,ºº Throw her down.ºº So they threw her down:ºº and [some] of her bloodºº was sprinkledºº onº the wall,º and onº the horses:º and he trode her under foot.ºº

 9:34 And [Jehu{gr.Ju}] went in and ate and drank, and said, Look now, after this cursed woman, and bury her, for she is a king's daughter.

 9:34 And when he was come in,ºº he did eatºº and drink,ºº and said,ºº Go,ºº seeº nowºº thisº cursedºº [woman], and buryºº her: forº sheº [is] a king'sº daughter.º

 9:35 And they went to bury her; but they found nothing of her but the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.

 9:35 And they wentººº to buryºº her: but they foundºº no moreº of her thanºº the skull,º and the feet,º and the palmsº of [her] hands.º

 9:36 And they returned and told him. And he said, [It is] the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of Elijah{gr.Eliu} the Tishbite{gr.Thesbite}, saying, In the portion of Jezreel{gr.Jezrael} shall the dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel{gr.Jezabel}.

 9:36 Wherefore they came again,ºº and toldºº him. And he said,ºº Thisº [is] the wordº of Yahweh,º whichº he spakeºº byº his servantº Elijahº the Tishbite,º saying,ºº In the portionº of Jezreelº shall dogsº eatººº the fleshº of Jezebel:º

 9:37 And the carcass of Jezebel{gr.Jezabel} shall be as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel{gr.Jezrael}, so that they shall not say, [This is] Jezebel{gr.Jezabel}.

 9:37 And the carcaseº of Jezebelº shall beº as dungº uponº the faceº of the fieldº in the portionº of Jezreel;º [so] thatº they shall notº say,ºº Thisº [is] Jezebel.º
