2 Kings 9:13-15

New American Standard Bible

¹³ Then ^(A)they hurried, and each man took his garment and put it under him on the bare steps, and ^(B)blew the trumpet, saying, “Jehu is king!”

Jehu Assassinates Jehoram (Joram)

¹⁴ So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. ^(C)Now Joram ^[a]with all Israel was ^[b]defending Ramoth-gilead against Hazael king of Aram, ¹⁵ but ^(D)King ^[c]Joram had returned to Jezreel to have himself healed of the wounds which the Arameans had ^[d]inflicted on him when he fought Hazael king of Aram. So Jehu said to the other men, “If this is your ^[e]intent, then let no ^[f]one escape from the city to go tell about it in Jezreel.”
