Jehu Deceives Joram

¹⁴ So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. ^(A)Now Joram ^[a]with all Israel was ^[b]guarding Ramoth-gilead against Hazael king of Aram, ¹⁵ but ^(B)King ^[c]Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Arameans had struck him with when he fought with Hazael king of Aram. So Jehu said, “If this is your mind, then let no one escape or ^[d]leave the city to go declare it in Jezreel.” ¹⁶ Then Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram was lying there. ^(C)Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.
