1. ELISHA the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, "Put your belt on your waist, take this vial of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.

2. When you come there, find Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him rise up from among his brothers, and take him to an inner room.

3. Then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, 'The LORD says, "I have anointed you king over Israel."' Then open the door, flee, and don't wait."
