'Contend' in the Bible

Joash said to all who stood against him, "Will you contend for Baal? Or will you save him? He who will contend for him, let him be put to death while [it is yet] morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because someone has broken down his altar."

Therefore on that day he named him Jerub-Baal, saying, "Let Baal contend against him, because he has broken down his altar."
