2 Kings 10:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ In the morning, Jehu went out and stood before the people and said to them, “You are innocent. Look, I ·made plans [conspired; plotted] against my ·master [lord] and killed him. But who killed all these [^CJehu might have been blaming the Samaritan officials, or perhaps was implying that God ordered the killing]? ¹⁰ You should know that ·everything [^Lnothing] the Lord said about Ahab’s ·family [^Lhouse] will ·come true [^Lfall to the ground/earth]. The Lord ·has spoken [spoke his word] through his servant Elijah, and the Lord has done what he said.” ¹¹ So Jehu killed everyone of Ahab’s ·family [^Lhouse] in Jezreel who was still alive. He also killed all Ahab’s ·leading men [important officials], ·close [personal] friends, and priests. ·No one who had helped Ahab was left alive [He left no one to survive him].
