2 Kings 10:18-27
18And JehuH3058 gatheredH6908 allH3605 the peopleH5971 togetherH6908, and saidH559 unto them, AhabH256 servedH5647 BaalH1168 a littleH4592; but JehuH3058 shall serveH5647 him muchH7235.
19NowH6258 therefore callH7121 unto meH413 allH3605 the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168, allH3605 his worshippers, and allH3605 his priestsH3548; letH408 noneH3808 be wanting: for I have a greatH1419 sacrificeH2077 to doH6213 to BaalH1168; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall notH3808 liveH2421. But JehuH3058 didH6213 it in subtilty, to the intent that he might destroyH6 the worshippers of BaalH1168.
20And JehuH3058 saidH559, SanctifyH6942 a solemnH6116 assemblyH6116 for BaalH1168. And they proclaimedH7121 it.
21And JehuH3058 sentH7971 throughH935 allH3605 IsraelH3478: and allH3605 the worshippers of BaalH1168 cameH935, soH7971 that there was notH3808 a manH376 leftH7604 that cameH935 notH3808. And they cameH935 intoH935 the houseH1004 of BaalH1168; and the houseH1004 of BaalH1168 was filledH4390 from one endH6310 to anotherH376.
22And he saidH559 unto him that was over the vestry, BringH3318 forthH3318 vestments for allH3605 the worshippers of BaalH1168. And he broughtH3318 them forthH3318 vestments.
23And JehuH3058 wentH935, and JehonadabH3082 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394, intoH935 the houseH1004 of BaalH1168; and he saidH559 unto the worshippers of BaalH1168, SearchH2664, and lookH7200 that there be hereH6311 with youH3588 noneH6435 of the servantsH5650 of the LORDH3068, but the worshippers of BaalH1168 onlyH905.
24And they wentH935 in to offerH2077 sacrificesH2077 and burntH5930 offeringsH4480. NowH935 JehuH3058 had appointedH7760 him fourscore menH376 withoutH4480, and saidH559, IfH834 anyH4480 of the menH376 whomH834 I bringH935 intoH935 your handsH3027 escapeH4422, he that letteth him goH935, his lifeH5315 shall be for the lifeH5315 of him.
25And it cameH935 to passH935, as soon as he had madeH6213 as endH3615 of offering the burntH5930 offering, that JehuH3058 saidH559 to the guardH7323 and to the captains, GoH3318 in, and slayH5221 them; letH408 noneH408 comeH935 forthH3318. And they smoteH5221 them with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; and the guardH7323 and the captains castH7993 them outH3318, and wentH3318 to the cityH5892 of the houseH1004 of BaalH1168.
26And they broughtH3318 forthH3318 the pillarsH4676 that were in the houseH1004 of BaalH1168, and burnedH8313 them.
27And they brake downH5422 the pillarH4676 of BaalH1168, and brake downH5422 the houseH1004 of BaalH1168, and madeH7760 it a draught houseH1004, unto this dayH3117.
