12:009:002 And when thou comest thither, look out
there Jehu the son of
Jehoshaphat
the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise
up
from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner
chamber;
12:009:003 Then take the box of oil, and pour it on
his head, and say,
Thus
saith the lord, I have anointed thee king over
Israel.
Then
open the door, and flee, and tarry not.
12:009:004 So the young man, even the young man the
prophet, went to
Ramothgilead.
12:009:005 And when he came, behold, the captains
of the host were
sitting;
and he said, I have an errand to thee, O captain.
And
Jehu
said, Unto which of all us? And he said, To thee,
O
captain.
12:009:006 And he arose, and went into the house;
and he poured the oil
on
his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the lord
God of
Israel,
I have anointed thee king over the people of the lord,
even
over Israel.
12:009:007 And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab
thy master, that I may
avenge
the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood
of
all
the servants of the lord, at the hand of Jezebel.
12:009:008 For the whole house of Ahab shall perish:
and I will cut off
from
Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that
is
shut
up and left in Israel:
12:009:009 And I will make the house of Ahab like
the house of Jeroboam
the
son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son
of
Ahijah:
12:009:010 And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion
of Jezreel, and
there
shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door,
and
fled.
12:009:011 Then Jehu came forth to the servants of
his lord: and one said
unto
him, Is all well? wherefore came this mad fellow to
thee?
And
he said unto them, Ye know the man, and his communication.
12:009:012 And they said, It is false; tell us now.
And he said, Thus and
thus
spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the lord, I
have
anointed
thee king over Israel.
12:009:013 Then they hasted, and took every man his
garment, and put it
under
him on the top of the stairs, and blew with trumpets,
saying,
Jehu is king.
12:009:014 So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son
of Nimshi conspired
against
Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramothgilead, he and all
Israel,
because of Hazael king of Syria.
12:009:015 But king Joram was returned to be healed
in Jezreel of the
wounds
which the Syrians had given him, when he fought with
Hazael
king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it be your minds,
then
let none go forth nor escape out of the city to go
to
tell
it in Jezreel.
