| 2nd-Kings 10:1 | Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, even the elders, and to those who brought up [the sons of] Ahab, saying, | Now there were in Samaria seventy of Ahab's sons. And Jehu sent letters to Samaria, to the rulers of the town, and to the responsible men, and to those who had the care of the sons of Ahab, saying, | And Achab had seventy sons in Samaria: so Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the chief men of the city, and to the ancients, and to them that brought up Achab's children, saying: |
| 2nd-Kings 10:2 | Now as soon as this letter comes to you, seeing your master's sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, a fortified city also, and armor; | Straight away, when you get this letter, seeing that your master's sons are with you, and that you have carriages and horses and a walled town and arms; | As soon as you receive these letters, ye that have your master's sons, and chariots, and horses, and fenced cities, and armour, |
| 2nd-Kings 10:3 | look you out the best and meet of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's house. | Take the best and most upright of your master's sons, and make him king in his father's place, and put up a fight for your master's family. | Choose the best, and him that shall please you most of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for the house of your master. |

| 2nd-Kings 10:5 | He who was over the household, and he who was over the city, the elders also, and those who brought up [the children], sent to Jehu, saying, We are your servants, and will do all that you shall bid us; we will not make any man king: you do that which is good in your eyes. | So the controller of the king's house, with the ruler of the town, and the responsible men, and those who had the care of Ahab's sons, sent to Jehu, saying, We are your servants and will do all your orders; we will not make any man king; do whatever seems best to you. | Therefore the overseers of the house, and the rulers of the city, and the ancients, and the tutors sent to Jehu, saying: We are thy servants, whatsoever thou shalt command us we will do, neither will we make us a king: do thou all that pleaseth thee. |
| 2nd-Kings 10:6 | Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If you be on my side, and if you will listen to my voice, take the heads of the men your master's sons, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time. Now the king's sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who brought them up. | Then he sent them a second letter, saying, If you are on my side, and if you will do my orders, come to me at Jezreel by this time tomorrow, with the heads of your master's sons. Now the king's seventy sons were with the great men of the town, who had the care of them. | And he wrote letters the second time to them, saying: If you be mine, and will obey me, take the heads of the sons of your master, and come to me to Jezrahel by to morrow this time.

And he gave him his hand, and he made him come up into his carriage. | And when he was departed thence, he found Jonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him, and he blessed him.
