2 Kings 9:11-13

Christian Standard Bible

¹¹ When Jehu came out to his master’s servants, they asked, “Is everything all right? Why did this crazy person^(A) come to you?”

Then he said to them, “You know the sort and their ranting.”

¹² But they replied, “That’s a lie! Tell us!”

So Jehu said, “He talked to me about this and that and said, ‘This is what the Lord says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”

¹³ Each man quickly took his garment and put it under Jehu on the bare steps.^[a](B) They blew the ram’s horn^(C) and proclaimed, “Jehu is king!” ^(D)
