24 And (A)Jehu [a]drew his bow with his full strength and struck [b]Joram between his arms; and the arrow went [c]through his heart and he crouched down in his chariot. 25 Then Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, “Lift him up and (B)cast him into the [d]property of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite, for I remember when [e]you and I were riding together after Ahab his father, that (C)Yahweh lifted up this (D)oracle against him: 26 ‘Surely (E)I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons,’ says Yahweh, ‘and (F)I will repay you in this [f]property,’ says Yahweh. So now, lift him up and cast him into the [g]property, according to the word of Yahweh.”
