1 Now Elisha the prophet summoned a member of the prophetic guild and told him, |Tuck your robes into your belt, take this container of olive oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead. 2 When you arrive there, look for Jehu son of Jehoshaphat son of Nimshi and take him aside into an inner room. 3 Take the container of olive oil, pour it over his head, and say, 'This is what the LORD says, |I have designated you as king over Israel.|' Then open the door and run away quickly!| 2 Kings 9:1-3, New English Translation.
