2 Kings 9:20

And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the 6driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for bhe driveth 7furiously.

And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously.

NKJV: So the watchman reported, saying, “He went up to them and is not coming back; and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously!”

ESV: Again the watchman reported, “He reached them, but he is not coming back. And the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously.”
