2 Kings 10:18-36 - Jehu Purges The Baal Worshipers
18 And Jehu will gather together all the people, and say to them, Ahab served Baal a little; Jehu will serve him much. 19 And now all the prophets of Baal, all his servants and all his priests, call ye to me: a man shall not be missing: for a great sacrifice to me for Baal; every one who shall be missing shall not live. And Jehu did in fraud, in order to destroy the servants of Baal. 20 And Jehu will say, Consecrate an assembly to Baal, and they will call.
21 And Jehu will send in all Israel: and all the servants of Baal will come, and there was not a man left who came not. And they will come to the house of Baal, and the house of Baal will be filled, mouth to mouth. 22 And he will say to him over the vestry, Bring forth garments for all the servants of Baal. And he will bring forth to them garments.
23 And Jehu will come, and Jehonadab son of Rechab, to the house of Baal, and he Will say to the servants of Baal, Search and see, lest there is here with you of the servants of Jehovah, but the servants of Baal only. 24 And they will go in to do sacrifices and burnt-offerings, and Jehu set to him without, eighty men; and he will say, The man who shall escape from these men which I bring upon your hands, his soul instead of his soul. 25 And it will be when they finished doing the burnt-offering, and Jehu will say to the runners and to the third rulers, Go in; strike them; a man shall not go forth. And they will strike them with the mouth of the sword and the runners and the thirds will cast out, and they will go even to the city of the house of Baal. 26 And they will bring forth the pillars of the house of Baal, and they will burn them. 27 And they will lay waste the images of Baal, and they will lay waste the house of Baal, and they will set it for a sink even to this day.
28 And Jehu will destroy Baal out of Israel. 29 But the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin, Johu turned not away from after them, the calves of gold which were in the house of God and which were in Dan. 30 And Jehovah will say to Johu, Because thou didst good to do the straight in mine eyes, according to all which was in my heart thou didst to the house of Ahab, thy son of the descendants of the fourth generation shall sit to thee upon the throne of Israel.
31 And Jehu watched not to go in the law of Jehovah God of Israel with all his heart: he turned not away from the sins of Jeroboam who caused Israel to sin.
32 In those days Jehovah began to out off in Israel, and Hazael will strike them in all the bound of Israel; 33 From Jordan from the rising of the sun, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer which upon the torrent Arnon, and Gilead and shan.
34 And the remainder of the words of Jehu, and all which he did, and all his strength, are they not written upon the book of the words of the days to the kings of Israel? 35 And Jehu will lie down with his fathers, and they will bury him in Shomeron. And Jehoahaz his son will reign in his stead. 36 And the days which Jehu reigned over Israel twenty and eight years, in Shomeron.
