2 Kings 10:19-25
19NowH6258, 1summonH7121 allH3605 the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168, allH3605 his worshipersH5647 and allH3605 his priestsH3548; let noH408 oneH376 be missingH6485, for I have a greatH1419 sacrificeH2077 for BaalH1168; whoeverH3605H834 is missingH6485 shall not liveH2421.” But JehuH3058 didH6213 it in 2cunningH6122, soH4616 that he might destroyH6 the worshipersH5647 of BaalH1168. 20And JehuH3058 saidH559, “3SanctifyH6942 a solemnH6116 assemblyH6116 for BaalH1168.” And 4they proclaimedH7121 it. 21Then JehuH3058 sentH7971 5throughoutH3605 IsraelH3478 and allH3605 the worshipersH5647 of BaalH1168 cameH935, so that there was not a manH376 leftH7604 whoH834 did not comeH935. And when they wentH935 into 6the houseH1004 of BaalH1168, the houseH1004 of BaalH1168 was filledH4390 from oneH6310 endH6310 to the otherH6310. 22He saidH559 to the one whoH834 was 7in chargeH5921 of the wardrobeH4458, “BringH3318 out garmentsH3830 for allH3605 the worshipersH5647 of BaalH1168.” So he broughtH3318 out garmentsH4403 for them. 23JehuH3058 wentH935 into the houseH1004 of BaalH1168 with JehonadabH3082 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394; and he saidH559 to the worshipersH5647 of BaalH1168, “SearchH2664 and seeH7200 that thereH3426 is hereH6311 with you noneH6435 of the servantsH5650 of the LordH3068, but onlyH905 the worshipersH5647 of BaalH1168.” 24Then they wentH935 in to offerH6213 sacrificesH2077 and burntH5930 offeringsH5930.
Now JehuH3058 had stationedH7760 for himself eightyH8084 menH376 outsideH2351, and he had saidH559, “8The oneH376 whoH834 permits anyH4480 of the menH376 whomH834 I bringH935 into your handsH3027 to escapeH4422 9shall give up his lifeH5315 in exchangeH8478.”
25Then it cameH1961 about, as soon as he had finishedH3615 offeringH6213 the burntH5930 offeringH5930, that JehuH3058 saidH559 to the 1011guardH7323 and to the royalH7991 officersH7991, “12GoH935 in, 13killH5221 them; let noneH376H408 comeH3318 out.” And they 14killedH5221 them with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and the 15guardH7323 and the royalH7991 officersH7991 threwH7993 them out, and wentH1980 to the 16innerH5892 roomH5892 of the houseH1004 of BaalH1168.
