and Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint king over Israel; and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah shalt thou anoint prophet in thy stead.

יֵה֣וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And it shall come to pass, [ergänzt: that] him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay; and him that escapeth the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.

יֵה֑וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”יֵה֖וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And when thou art come thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him rise up from among his brethren, and bring him to an inner chamber;

יֵה֨וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting. And he said, I have an errand to thee, captain. And Jehu said, To which of all of us? And he said, To thee, captain.

יֵהוּא֙ ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord. And one said to him, Is all well? why came this madman to thee? And he said to them, Ye know the man, and his mind.

וְיֵה֗וּא (יֵה֗וּא) ye.Hu' “Jehu”

Then they hasted and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the very stairs, and blew with trumpets, and said, Jehu is king!

יֵהֽוּא׃ ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram kept Ramoth-Gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria;

יֵה֛וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

and king Joram had returned to be healed in Jizreel of the wounds that the Syrians had given him, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it be your will, let not a fugitive escape out of the city to go to tell [ergänzt: it] in Jizreel.

יֵהוּא֙ ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jizreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.

יֵהוּא֙ ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And the watchman stood on the tower in Jizreel, and saw Jehu's company as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?

יֵהוּא֙ ye.Hu' “Jehu”

So there went one on horseback to meet him; and he said, Thus saith the king: Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told saying, The messenger came to them, and he does not return.

יֵה֛וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And he sent out a second on horseback; and he came to them and said, Thus saith the king: Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.

יֵה֛וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And the watchman told saying, He came to them, and does not return. And the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he drives furiously.

יֵה֣וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

Then Joram said, Make ready! And they made ready his chariot. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot; and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the plot of Naboth the Jizreelite.

יֵה֔וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And it came to pass when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he said, What peace, so long as the fornications of thy mother Jezebel and her sorceries are so many?

יֵה֔וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”יֵה֑וּא ye.Hu' “O Jehu”

And Jehu took his bow in his hand, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out through his heart; and he sank down in his chariot.

וְיֵה֞וּא (יֵה֞וּא) ye.Hu' “Jehu”

When Ahaziah king of Judah saw [ergänzt: that], he fled by the way of the garden-house. And Jehu followed after him, and said, Smite him also in his chariot. It was on the ascent of Gur, which is by Jibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.

יֵה֗וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And Jehu came to Jizreel; and Jezebel heard of it, and she put paint to her eyes, and decked her head, and looked out at the window.

יֵה֖וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And when Jehu came in at the gate, she said, Is it peace, Zimri, murderer of his master?

וְיֵה֖וּא (יֵה֖וּא) ye.Hu' “Jehu”

Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the princes of Jizreel, to the elders, and to Ahab's guardians, saying,

יֵה֨וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, and the elders, and the guardians sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any one king; do what is good in thy sight.

יֵה֤וּא׀ ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jizreel, and all his great men, and his acquaintances, and his priests, until he left him none remaining.

יֵה֗וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

Jehu found the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they said, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and have come down to salute the children of the king, and the children of the queen.

וְיֵה֗וּא (יֵה֗וּא) ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, Ahab served Baal a little: Jehu will serve him much.

יֵהוּא֙ ye.Hu' “Jehu”יֵה֖וּא ye.Hu' “Jehu”

And now call me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests: let none be wanting; for I have a great sacrifice [ergänzt: to do] to Baal; whoever shall be wanting shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtilty, in order that he might bring destruction upon the servants of Baal.

וְיֵהוּא֙ (יֵהוּא֙) ye.Hu' “Jehu”
