2 Kings 10:3-5
Living Bible

4 But they were too frightened to do it. “Two kings couldn’t stand against this man! What can we do?” they said.
5 So the manager of palace affairs and the city manager, together with the city council and the guardians of Ahab’s sons, sent him this message:
“Jehu, we are your servants and will do anything you tell us to. We have decided that you should be our king instead of one of Ahab’s sons.”
