2 Kings 10:18-28

18Then Jehu gathered all the people and said to them, “1Ahab served Baal a little; Jehu will serve him much. 19Now, 2summon to me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshipers and all his priests; let no one go missing, because I have a great sacrifice for Baal; whoever is missing shall not live.” But Jehu did it in deception, in order to eliminate the worshipers of Baal. 20And Jehu said, “3Proclaim a holy assembly for Baal.” And 4they proclaimed it. 21Then Jehu sent word 5throughout Israel, and all the worshipers of Baal came, so that there was not a person left who did not come. And when they entered 6the house of Baal, the house of Baal was filled from one end to the other. 22And he said to the one who was 7in charge of the wardrobe, “Bring out garments for all the worshipers of Baal.” So he brought out the garments for them. 23Then Jehu entered the house of Baal with Jehonadab the son of Rechab; and he said to the worshipers of Baal, “Search carefully and see to it that there is here with you none of the servants of the Lord, but only the worshipers of Baal.” 24Then they entered to 8offer sacrifices and burnt offerings.

Now Jehu had stationed for himself eighty men outside, and he had said, “9The one who allows any of the men whom I bring into your hands to escape 10shall give up his life in exchange.”

25Then it came about, as soon as he had finished 11offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the 1213guard and to the royal officers, “14Go in, 15kill them; let none come out.” So they 16killed them with the edge of the sword; and the 17guard and the royal officers threw them out, and went to the 18sanctuary of the house of Baal. 26They brought out the 19memorial stones of the house of Baal and burned them. 27They also tore down the memorial stone of Baal and tore down the house of Baal, and 20made it a latrine as it is to this day.

28So Jehu eradicated Baal from Israel.
