2 Kings 10:5-7 So those that were over the house, and those that were over the city, and the elders and the guardians sent to Jehu, saying, We also are your servants, and whatsoever you shall say to us we will do; we will not make any man king; we will do that which is right in your eyes.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ So those that were over the house, and those that were over the city, and the elders and the guardians sent to Jehu, saying, We also are your servants, and whatsoever you shall say to us we will do; we will not make any man king; we will do that which is right in your eyes. ⁶ And Jehu wrote them a second letter, saying, If you are for me, and hearken to my voice, take the heads of the men your master's sons, and bring them to me at this time tomorrow in Jezreel. Now the sons of the king were seventy men; these great men of the city brought them up. ⁷ And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons and killed them, all seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him at Jezreel.
