10 And as for Jezebel: The dogs will devour her in the area of Jezreel. No one will bury her." Then the young prophet opened the door and ran.
11 Jehu went out to his master’s officers. They said to him, "Is everything okay? Why did this fanatic come to you?"Jehu said to them, "You know the man and the nonsense he talks."
12 "That’s a lie!" they said. "Come on, tell us!"Jehu replied, "This is what he said to me: ‘This is what the Lord says: I anoint you king of Israel.’"
13 Then each man quickly took his cloak and put it beneath Jehu on the paved steps. They blew a trumpet and said, "Jehu has become king!"
14 Then Jehu, Jehoshaphat’s son and Nimshi’s grandson, plotted against Joram. Now Joram along with all of Israel had been guarding Ramoth-gilead against Aram’s King Hazael,
15 but King Joram had gone back to Jezreel to recover from wounds that the Arameans had given him when he fought Hazael. So Jehu said, "If this is the way you feel, then don’t let anyone escape from the city to talk about it in Jezreel."
16 Then Jehu got on a chariot and drove to Jezreel because Joram was resting there. Judah’s King Ahaziah had also come to visit Joram.
