2 Kings 9:1-7 ▼

1 And Elisha the prophet called to one of the sons of the prophets, and he will say to him, Gird thy loins, and take this flask of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-Gilead.

2 And go there and see there Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, and go and cause him to rise from the midst of his brethren, and bring him to a chamber in a chamber;

3 And take the flask of oil and pour upon his head, and say, Thus said Jehovah I anointed thee for king to Israel And open the door and flee, and thou shalt not wait.

4 And the boy will go, the boy the prophet, to Ramoth-Gilead.

5 And he will go in, and behold, the captains of the army sitting; and he will say, A word to me for thee the chief. And Jehu will say, To which of all of us? And he will say, To thee the chief.

6 And he will rise and go into the house, and he will pour the oil upon his head, and say to him, Thus said Jehovah the God of Israel, I anointed thee for king to the people, of Jehovah to Israel.

7 And smite thou the house of Ahab thy lord, and I avenged the bloods of my servants the prophets, and the bloods of all the servants of Jehovah from the hand of Jezebel.
