1Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, “Put your belt on your waist, take this vial of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.
2When you come there, find Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in and make him rise up from among his brothers, and take him to an inner room.
3Then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, ‘YHWH says, “I have anointed you king over Israel.”’ Then open the door, flee, and don’t wait.”
4So the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth Gilead.
5When he arrived, the captains of the army were sitting there. Then he said, “I have a message for you, captain.”
Jehu said, “To which one of us?”
He said, “To you, O captain.”
6He arose, and went into the house. Then he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, “YHWH, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have anointed you king over the people of YHWH, even over Israel.
7You must strike your master Ahab’s house, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of YHWH, at the hand of Jezebel.
8For the whole house of Ahab will perish. I will cut off from Ahab everyone who urinates against a wall, both him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel.[#9:8 or, male]
9I will make Ahab’s house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah.
10The dogs will eat Jezebel on the plot of ground of Jezreel, and there will be no one to bury her.’” Then he opened the door and fled.
11When Jehu came out to the servants of his lord, one of them said to him, “Is everything all right? Why did this madman come to you?”
Then he said to them, “Y’all know the man and how he talks.”
12They said, “That is a lie. Tell us now.”
He said, “He said to me, ‘YHWH says: I have anointed you king over Israel.’”
13Then they hurried, and each man took his cloak, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew the trumpet, saying, “Jehu is king.”
14So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram and all Israel had been defending Ramoth Gilead, because of Hazael king of Syria,
15but King Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel from the wounds the Syrians had given him when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) Jehu said, “If this what’s in y’all’s soul to do, then don’t let anyone escape and leave the city to go to tell it in Jezreel.”
16So Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram lay there. Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.
17Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, “I see a company.”
Joram said, “Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, ‘Is it peace?’”
18So one went on horseback to meet him, and said, “the king says, ‘Is it peace?’”
Jehu said, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!”
The watchman said, “The messenger came to them, but he isn’t coming back.”
19Then he sent out a second on horseback, who came to them and said, “The king says, ‘Is it peace?’”
Jehu answered, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!”
20The watchman said, “He came to them, and isn’t coming back. The driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously.”
21Joram said, “Get ready!”
They got his chariot ready. Then 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 on Naboth the Jezreelite’s land.
22When Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?”
He answered, “What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft abound?”
23Joram turned his hands and fled, and said to Ahaziah, “This is treason, Ahaziah!”
24Jehu drew his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms; and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.
25Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, “Pick him up, and throw him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for remember how, when you and I rode together after Ahab his father, YHWH laid this burden on him:
26‘Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons,’ says YHWH; ‘and I will repay you in this plot of ground,’ says YHWH. Now therefore take and cast him onto the plot of ground, according to the word of YHWH.”
27But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled up the road to Beth Haggan. Jehu followed after him and said, “Y’all shoot him too!” So they shot him while he was in the chariot on the way up to Gur, near Ibleam. He fled to Megiddo, and died there.
28His servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his tomb with his fathers in David’s city.
29In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab, Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.
30When Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked out at the window.
31As Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, “Do you come in peace, Zimri, murderer of your master?”
32He lifted up his face to the window, and said, “Who is on my side? Who?”
Two or three eunuchs looked out at him.
33He said, “Y’all throw her down!”
So they threw her down, and some of her blood was splattered against the wall and on the horses. Then he trampled her under foot.
34He went inside, ate and drank, and he said, “Please y’all, attend to this cursed woman and bury her, for she is a king’s daughter.”
35They went to bury her, but they found nothing except her skull, her feet, and the palms of her hands.
36So they returned and told him.
He said, “This is the word of YHWH that he spoke through his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, ‘The dogs will eat the flesh of Jezebel on the plot of Jezreel,
37and Jezebel’s corpse will be like dung on the surface of the field on Jezreel’s land, so that no one can even say, “This is Jezebel.”’”
