Tatkala Yoram melihat Yehu, bertanyalah ia: "Apakah ini kabar damai, hai Yehu?" Jawabnya: "Bagaimana ada damai, selama sundal dan orang sihir ibumu Izebel begitu banyak!"
Maka sesungguhnya demi dilihat Yoram akan Yehu, lalu katanya: Adakah selamat, hai Yehu? Maka sahutnya: Masakan selamat, selagi segala zina Izebel, ibumu, dan segala hobatannya begitu banyak adanya?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass, when Joram saw, Jehu, that he said, is it peace, Jehu?.... Have things gone well at Ramothgilead? art thou come in triumph from thence? or obliged to fly from the Syrians? or art thou come in a peaceable, or in an hostile manner to me?
and he answered, what peace; canst thou expect at home or abroad, from me or others:
so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many? which may be understood both literally of corporeal whoredom, and diabolical arts she was addicted to, and figuratively of idolatry, often called whoredom in Scripture, and of the wicked arts and methods she made use of to inveigle and entice persons into it; and both these very often went together; see Nahum 3:4 and of which Joram was guilty, at least in part; he connived at all in her, and did not attempt to restrain her, and therefore had no claim to peace, protection, and safety.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Joram had asked the usual question, “Is it peace?” - meaning simply, “Is all well?” In Jehu’s reply, by “whoredoms” we are probably to understand “idolatries,” acts of spiritual unfaithfulness; by “witchcrafts,” dealings with the Baal prophets and oracles. Compare 2 Kings 1:2 note.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Kings 9:22. What peace, so long as the whoredoms — Though the words whoredom, adultery, and fornication, are frequently used to express idolatry, and false religion, in general; yet here they may be safely taken in their common and most obvious sense, as there is much reason to believe that Jezebel was the patroness and supporter of a very impure system of religion; and to this Jehu might refer, rather than to the calf-worship, to which himself was most favourably disposed.
