“And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.”
Then the young man poured the oil on his head, saying to him: "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: I anoint you king over the people of the LORD, Israel." — the anointing and proclamation follow Elisha's instructions precisely. Jehu's kingship is established through prophetic word.
