2 Kings 10:1-7

  1 H256 Now Ahab H7657 had seventy H1121 sons H8111 in Samaria. H3058 Jehu H3789 wrote H5612 letters, H7971 and sent H8111 to Samaria, H8269 to the rulers H3157 of Jezreel, H2205 even the elders, H539 and to those who brought up H256 the sons of Ahab, H559 saying,

  2 H5612 "Now as soon as this letter H935 comes H113 to you, since your master's H1121 sons H7393 are with you, and there are with you chariots H5483 and horses, H4013 a fortified H5892 city H5402 also, and armor.

  3 H7200 Select H2896 the best H3477 and fittest H113 of your master's H1121 sons, H7760 set H1 him on his father's H3678 throne, H3898 and fight H113 for your master's H1004 house."

  4 H3966 But they were exceedingly H3372 afraid, H559 and said, H8147 "Behold, the two H4428 kings H5975 didn't stand H6440 before H5975 him! How then shall we stand?"

  5 H1004 He who was over the household, H5892 and he who was over the city, H2205 the elders H539 also, and those who raised H7971 the children, sent H3058 to Jehu, H559 saying, H5650 "We are your servants, H6213 and will do H559 all that you ask H376 us. We will not make any H4427 man king. H6213 You do H2896 that which is good H5869 in your eyes."

  6 H3789 Then he wrote H5612 a letter H8145 the second time H559 to them, saying, H8085 "If you are on my side, and if you will listen H6963 to my voice, H3947 take H7218 the heads H582 of the men H113 your master's H1121 sons, H935 and come H3157 to me to Jezreel H4279 by tomorrow H6256 this time." H4428 Now the king's H1121 sons, H7657 being seventy H376 persons, H1419 were with the great men H5892 of the city, H1431 who brought them up.

  7 H5612 It happened, when the letter H935 came H3947 to them, that they took H4428 the king's H1121 sons, H7819 and killed H7657 them, even seventy H376 persons, H7760 and put H7218 their heads H1731 in baskets, H7971 and sent H3157 them to him to Jezreel.
