21. Jehu sent messengers to all the Israelites. All the worshipers of Baal came, and there wasn’t one who didn’t come. They went into the temple of Baal and filled it from one end to the other.
22. Then Jehu told the man in charge of the priests’ robes, “Bring out the robes for all the worshipers of Baal.” So he brought out robes for them.
23. Jehu and Jehonadab, son of Rechab, went into the temple of Baal and said to the worshipers of Baal, “Make sure that there are no worshipers of the Lord here with you. Only the worshipers of Baal should be here.”
24. So they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. But Jehu had stationed 80 of his men outside. He said ⌊to them⌋, “If any of the people I’m putting in your hands escape, you will pay for their lives with yours.”
