Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel and he saw the company of Jehu as he came, and he said, 'I see a company.' And Joram said, 'Take a horseman and send him to meet them and have him ask, ‘Is
your intention
peace?’?'
18
So a horseman went to meet him and said, 'This is what the king says: ‘Is
your intention
peace?’?' But Jehu said, 'How is peace any business of yours? Turn
and
follow me.' And the watchman reported, 'The messenger came to them, but he did not return.'

18
So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he cometh not again.
