So a horseman went to meet Jehu and said, ‘This is what the king asks: “Do you come in peace? ” ’ Jehu replied, ‘What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me.’ The watchman reported, ‘The messenger reached them but hasn’t started back.’
So he sent out a second horseman, who went to them and said, ‘This is what the king asks: “Do you come in peace? ” ’ Jehu answered, ‘What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me.’
‘As they leave, they will see the dead bodies of those who have rebelled against me; for their worm will never die, their fire will never go out, and they will be a horror to all humanity.’
