| The watchman, as his duty was, had sent immediate notice to the king that he saw a crowd approaching (see Kg2 9:17-20). Jonadab, who was with the king, was prompt to give the explanation. |
17 And there stood [05975] a watchman [06822] on the tower [04026] in Jezreel [03157], and he spied [07200] the company [08229] of Jehu [03058] as he came [0935], and said [0559], I see [07200] a company [08229]. And Joram [03088] said [0559], Take [03947] an horseman [07395], and send [07971] to meet [07125] them, and let him say [0559], Is it peace [07965]?
18 So there went [03212] one on horseback [07392] [05483] to meet [07125] him, and said [0559], Thus saith [0559] the king [04428], Is it peace [07965]? And Jehu [03058] said [0559], What hast thou to do with peace [07965]? turn [05437] thee behind [0310] me. And the watchman [06822] told [05046], saying [0559], The messenger [04397] came [0935] to them, but he cometh not again [07725].
19 Then he sent out [07971] a second [08145] on horseback [07392] [05483], which came [0935] to them, and said [0559], Thus saith [0559] the king [04428], Is it peace [07965]? And Jehu [03058] answered [0559], What hast thou to do with peace [07965]? turn [05437] thee behind [0310] me.
20 And the watchman [06822] told [05046], saying [0559], He came [0935] even unto them, and cometh not again [07725]: and the driving [04491] is like the driving [04491] of Jehu [03058] the son [01121] of Nimshi [05250]; for he driveth [05090] furiously [07697].
