Jehu writes letters and sends them to Samaria, and he who was over the household, he who was over the city and the elders send to Jehu

예후가 편지들을 써서 사마리아에 보내고 궁내 대신과 부윤과 장로들이 예후에게 말을 전함

2 Kings 10:1–5: now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. Jehu writes letters and sends them to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, even the elders, and to those who brought up Ahab’s sons, saying, “Now as soon as this letter comes to you, since your master’s sons are with you, and you have chariots and horses, a fortified city also, and armor, select the best and fittest of your master’s sons, set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.” But they are exceedingly afraid, and say, “Behold, the two kings didn’t stand before him! How then shall we stand?” He who was over the household, and he who was over the city, the elders also, and those who raised the children, send to Jehu, saying, “We are your servants, and will do all that you ask us. We will not make any man king. You do that which is good in your eyes.” The Korean Revised Version puts the sons, the chariots and the arms first at 10:2 and the letter’s coming last (이 편지가 너희에게 이르거든, when this letter comes to you), and reads 이스르엘 방백 곧 장로들, the princes of Jezreel, that is, the elders, at 10:1.
