jub - 2Kings:9-10

jub@2Kings:9:1 @ Then Elisha, the prophet, called one of the sons of the prophets and said unto him, Gird up thy loins and take this flask of oil in thy hand and go to Ramothgilead.

jub@2Kings:9:2 @ And when thou comest there, thou shalt see Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, there; go in and make him arise up from among his brethren and take him to an inner chamber.

jub@2Kings:9:3 @ Then take the flask of oil and pour [it] on his head and say, Thus hath the LORD said, I have anointed thee king over Israel. Then open the door and flee and do not tarry.

jub@2Kings:9:4 @ So the young man, the servant of the prophet, went to Ramothgilead.

jub@2Kings:9:5 @ 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.

jub@2Kings:9:6 @ And he arose and went into the house, and he poured the oil on his head and said unto him, Thus hath said the LORD God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the LORD, [even] over Israel.

jub@2Kings:9:7 @ 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.

jub@2Kings:9:8 @ For the whole house of Ahab shall perish, and I will cut off from Ahab him that pisses against the wall, he that is shut up as well as he that is left in Israel.

jub@2Kings:9:9 @ 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.

jub@2Kings:9:10 @ And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel, and [there shall be] no one to bury [her]. And he opened the door and fled.

jub@2Kings:9:11 @ Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord, and [one] said unto him, Is there peace? Why did this mad [fellow] come to thee? And he said unto them, Ye know the man and his communication.

jub@2Kings:9:12 @ And they said, We know not; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus he spoke unto me, saying, Thus hath the LORD said, I have anointed thee king over Israel.

jub@2Kings:9:13 @ Then they hastened, and each man took his garment, and put [it] under him in a high throne, and blew the shofar, saying, Jehu is king.

jub@2Kings:9:14 @ So Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram was keeping Ramothgilead, with all Israel, because of Hazael, king of Syria.

jub@2Kings:9:15 @ 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 is your desire, [then] do not let anyone go forth [nor] escape out of the city to tell the news in Jezreel.

jub@2Kings:9:16 @ So Jehu rode and went to Jezreel, for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah, king of Judah, was come down to see Joram.

jub@2Kings:9:17 @ And the watchman, who stood in the tower of Jezreel, spied the company of Jehu as he came and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take a horseman and send to meet them and let him say unto them, Is there peace?

jub@2Kings:9:18 @ So one on horseback went to meet him and said, Thus saith the king, Is there peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? Turn behind me. And the watchman gave notice, saying, The messenger came to them, but he does not return.

jub@2Kings:9:19 @ Then he sent out another on horseback, who came to them, and said, Thus saith the king, Is there peace? And Jehu answered, What hast thou to do with peace? Turn behind me.

jub@2Kings:9:20 @ And the watchman gave notice again, saying, He also came unto them and does not return, and the pace of him who is coming [is] like the pace of Jehu, the son of Nimshi, for he comes impetuously.

jub@2Kings:9:21 @ And Joram said, Make ready. And his chariot was made ready. And Joram, king of Israel, and Ahaziah, king of Judah, went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu and found him in the portion of Naboth of Jezreel.

jub@2Kings:9:22 @ And when Joram saw Jehu, he said, Is there peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the fornications of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts [are so] many?

jub@2Kings:9:23 @ Then Joram turned his hands and fled and said to Ahaziah, [There is] treachery, O Ahaziah.

jub@2Kings:9:24 @ But Jehu drew his bow with his full strength and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.

jub@2Kings:9:25 @ Then said [Jehu] to Bidkar, his captain, Take him [and] cast him in the edge of the portion of the field of Naboth of Jezreel. Remember that when thou and I went together after Ahab, his father, the LORD pronounced this sentence upon him, saying,

jub@2Kings:9:26 @ Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons, said the LORD, and I will requite thee in this portion, said the LORD. Now, therefore, take [and] cast him into the portion, according to the word of the LORD.

jub@2Kings:9:27 @ But when Ahaziah, the king of Judah, saw [this], he fled by the way of the garden house. And Jehu followed after him and said, Smite him also in the chariot. [And they did so] at the ascent to Gur, which [is] by Ibleam. And he fled to Megiddo and died there.

jub@2Kings:9:28 @ And his servants carried him to Jerusalem and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.

jub@2Kings:9:29 @ In the eleventh year of Joram, the son of Ahab, Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.

jub@2Kings:9:30 @ And Jehu came to Jezreel, and when Jezebel heard [of it], she painted her face and tired her head and looked out of a window.

jub@2Kings:9:31 @ And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, [Had] Zimri peace, who slew his master?

jub@2Kings:9:32 @ And he lifted up his face to the window and said, Who [is] on my side? Who? And two [or] three eunuchs looked at him.

jub@2Kings:9:33 @ And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down, and [some] of her blood was sprinkled on the wall and on the horses; and he trode her under foot.

jub@2Kings:9:34 @ And he entered in, and after he ate and drank, he said, Go, see now this cursed [woman] and bury her; for [after all] she [is] a king's daughter.

jub@2Kings:9:35 @ But when they went to bury her, they found no more of her than the skull and the feet and the palms of [her] hands.

jub@2Kings:9:36 @ And they returned and told him. And he said, This [is] the word of the LORD, which he spoke by his servant Elijah, the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel.

jub@2Kings:9:37 @ And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel so that no one shall be able to say, This [is] Jezebel.:

jub@2Kings:10:1 @ And Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters and sent to Samaria unto the princes of Jezreel, to the elders, and to those that brought up Ahab's [children], saying,

jub@2Kings:10:2 @ Now as soon as this letter comes to you, unto those who have your master's sons and who have chariots and horsemen and who have the arms and munitions of the city,

jub@2Kings:10:3 @ see [which] is the best and most upright of your master's sons and set [him] on his father's throne and fight for your master's house.

jub@2Kings:10:4 @ But they were exceedingly afraid and said, Behold, two kings could not stand before him; how then shall we stand?

jub@2Kings:10:5 @ And he that [was] over the house and he that [was] over the city, the elders also, and those who had brought up [the children] sent to Jehu, saying, We [are] thy servants and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any king; thou shalt do [that which is] good in thy eyes.

jub@2Kings:10:6 @ Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye [are] mine and [if] ye will hearken unto my voice, take the heads of the male sons of your master and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time. Now the king's sons, [being] seventy males, [were] with the great men of the city, who had brought them up.

jub@2Kings:10:7 @ And when the letter came to them, they took the king's sons and slew seventy males and put their heads in baskets and sent him [them] to Jezreel.

jub@2Kings:10:8 @ And a messenger came and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.

jub@2Kings:10:9 @ And in the morning, he went out and stood and said to all the people, Ye [are] righteous; behold, I conspired against my master and slew him; but who slew all these?

jub@2Kings:10:10 @ Know now that of the word of the LORD which the LORD spoke concerning the house of Ahab, nothing shall fall to the ground, for the LORD has done [that] which he spoke by his servant Elijah.

jub@2Kings:10:11 @ So Jehu slew all that had remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men and all his kinsfolk and all his priests until he left him none remaining.

jub@2Kings:10:12 @ And he arose and departed and came to Samaria. [And] as he [was] at a pastor's shearing house in the way,

jub@2Kings:10:13 @ Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah, king of Judah, and said, Who [are] ye? And they answered, We [are] the brethren of Ahaziah, and we go down to salute the sons of the king and the sons of the queen.

jub@2Kings:10:14 @ So he said, Take them alive. And after they took them alive, they slew them at the well of the shearing house, forty-two men, without leaving any of them.

jub@2Kings:10:15 @ And when he had departed from there, he met Jehonadab, the son of Rechab; and after he saluted him, he said to him, Is thy heart right as my heart [is] with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it is, give [me] thy hand. And he gave [him] his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot.

jub@2Kings:10:16 @ And he said, Come with me, and thou shalt see my zeal for the LORD. So they had him ride in his chariot.

jub@2Kings:10:17 @ And when he came to Samaria, he slew all that had remained of Ahab in Samaria, until he had [completely] destroyed him, according to the word of the LORD which he had spoken to Elijah.

jub@2Kings:10:18 @ And Jehu gathered all the people together and said unto them, Ahab served Baal a little [but] Jehu shall serve him much.

jub@2Kings:10:19 @ Now, therefore, call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let no one be lacking, for I have a great sacrifice [to do] to Baal; whoever is lacking shall not live. But Jehu did [it] in subtilty to the intent that he might destroy those that served Baal.

jub@2Kings:10:20 @ And Jehu said, Sanctify a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed [it].

jub@2Kings:10:21 @ And Jehu sent through all Israel, and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was no one lacking that did not come. And they came into the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was full from one end to another.

jub@2Kings:10:22 @ And he said to the one that [was] over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all those that served Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.

jub@2Kings:10:23 @ And Jehu went with Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal and said unto the servants of Baal, Search and make sure that none of the servants of the LORD are here with you, but only the servants of Baal.

jub@2Kings:10:24 @ And when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu put eighty men outside and said, Whoever leaves alive any of the men whom I have brought into your hands, his life shall be for that of the other.

jub@2Kings:10:25 @ And after they had finished offering the burnt offering, Jehu said to those of his guard and to the captains, Go in, [and] slay them; let none escape. And they smote them with the edge of the sword, and the guard and the captains left them where they fell and went to the city of the house of Baal,

jub@2Kings:10:26 @ and they removed the images out of the house of Baal and burned them.

jub@2Kings:10:27 @ And they broke down the image of Baal and broke down the house of Baal and made it a latrine unto this day.

jub@2Kings:10:28 @ Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.

jub@2Kings:10:29 @ However with all this, Jehu did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin [with] the golden calves that [were] in Bethel and in Daniel.

jub@2Kings:10:30 @ And the LORD said unto Jehu, Because thou hast done well in executing [that which is] right in my eyes [and] hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that [was] in my heart, thy sons shall sit on the throne of Israel unto the fourth [generation].

jub@2Kings:10:31 @ But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart; neither did he depart from the sins of Jeroboam, who had caused Israel to sin.

jub@2Kings:10:32 @ In those days the LORD began to cut Israel short, and Hazael smote them in all the borders of Israel,

jub@2Kings:10:33 @ from the Jordan toward the rising of the sun, all the land of Gilead, of Gad, of Reuben, and of Manasses, from Aroer, which [is] by the river Arnon, to Gilead and to Bashan.

jub@2Kings:10:34 @ Now the rest of the acts of Jehu and all that he did and all his might, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

jub@2Kings:10:35 @ And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz, his son, reigned in his stead.

jub@2Kings:10:36 @ The time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria [was] twenty-eight years.:

jub@2Kings:11:1 @ And Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, seeing that her son was dead, arose and destroyed all the royal seed.
