Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
Abiit ergo qui ascenderat currum, in occursum ejus, et ait: Hæc dicit rex: Pacatane sunt omnia? Dixitque Jehu: Quid tibi et paci? transi, et sequere me. Nuntiavit quoque speculator, dicens: Venit nuntius ad eos, et non revertitur.
Nova Vulgata (1979)
Abiit igitur, qui ascenderat equum in occursum eius, et ait: "Haec dicit rex: Pacatane sunt omnia?". Dixitque ei Iehu: "Quid tibi et paci? Transi et sequere me". Nuntiavit quoque speculator dicens: "Venit nuntius ad eos et non revertitur".

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, thus saith the king, is it peace?.... Are things well in the army, or any disturbance in the kingdom? are you come as friends or enemies?

and Jehu said, what hast thou to do with peace? or to ask such a question:

turn thee behind me; which he was obliged to do, Jehu having such a company of soldiers with him; and this he did, that he might carry no tidings to Joram, that he might not know as yet who he and his company were:

and the watchman told, saying, the messenger came to them, but he cometh not again; of this he sent word to the king what he had observed.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

What hast thou to do with peace? - i. e., “What does it matter to thee whether my errand is one of peace or not?”

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Kings 9:18. What hast thou to do with peace? — "What is it to thee whether there be peace or war? Join my company, and fall into the rear."
