2 Kings 10:7 in Context — 2 Kings 10
5 E o mordomo, e o governador da cidade, e os anciãos, e os tutores, enviaram a dizer a Jeú: Servos teus somos, e faremos tudo o que nos mandares: não elegeremos por rei a ninguém; tu farás o que bem te parecer.
6 Ele então lhes escreveu a segunda vez dizendo: Se sois meus, e quereis obedecer-me, tomai os chefes dos homens filhos de vosso senhor, e vinde amanhã a estas horas a mim a Jezreel. E os filhos do rei, setenta homens, estavam com os principais da cidade, que os criavam.
7 E quando as cartas chegaram a eles, tomaram aos filhos do rei, e degolaram setenta homens, e puseram suas cabeças em cestos, e enviaram-nas a Jezreel.
8 E veio um mensageiro que lhe deu as novas, dizendo: Trouxeram as cabeças dos filhos do rei. E ele lhe disse: Ponde-as em dois amontoados à entrada da porta até a manhã.
9 Vinda a manhã, saiu ele, e estando em pé disse a todo o povo: Vós sois justos: eis que eu conspirei contra meu senhor, e o mateis: mas quem matou a todos estes?
