And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth {H4422} the sword {H2719} of Hazael {H2371} shall Jehu {H3058} slay {H4191}: and him that escapeth {H4422} from the sword {H2719} of Jehu {H3058} shall Elisha {H477} slay {H4191}.

Yehu will kill whoever escapes the sword of Haza'el, and Elisha will kill whoever escapes the sword of Yehu.

And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth from the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay; and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.
