5 When he arrived, the commanders of the army were sitting, and he said, “I have a word for you, Commander.”Jehu said, “Which one of us?”And he said, “For you, Commander.”
6 So he arose, went into the house, poured the oil on his head, and said to him, “Thus says the Lord, God of Israel: I am anointing you king over the people of the Lord, over Israel.
7 You will strike the house of Ahab your master, and I will avenge the blood of my servants the prophets and the blood of all the servants of the Lord from the hand of Jezebel.
8 The whole house of Ahab will perish, and I will cut off from Ahab all the males in Israel, both imprisoned and free.
9 I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah.
10 Dogs will eat Jezebel in the territory of Jezreel, and no one will bury her.” Then he opened the door and fled.
11 When Jehu had returned to his master’s servants, one said to him, “Is all well? Why did this madman come to you?”And he said to them, “You know this man and his babble.”
