2 Kings 9:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 ¶ Then Jehu came out to the [a]servants of his lord. And one said unto him, Is all well? wherefore came this [b]mad fellow to thee? And he said unto them, Ye know the man, and what his talk was.
12 And they said, It is false, tell us it now. Then he said, Thus and thus spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the Lord, I have anointed thee for King over Israel.
13 Then they made haste, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew the trumpet, saying, Jehu is King.

New International Version
11 When Jehu went out to his fellow officers, one of them asked him, “Is everything all right? Why did this maniac(A) come to you?”
“You know the man and the sort of things he says,” Jehu replied.
12 “That’s not true!” they said. “Tell us.”
Jehu said, “Here is what he told me: ‘This is what the Lord says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”
13 They quickly took their cloaks and spread(B) them under him on the bare steps. Then they blew the trumpet(C) and shouted, “Jehu is king!”
