2 Kings 10:20-29 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

20. And Jehu said, Sanctify a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.

21. And Jehu sent through all Israel, and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was no one lacking that did not come. And they came into the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was full from one end to another.

22. And he said to the one that was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all those that served Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.

23. And Jehu went with Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal and said unto the servants of Baal, Search and make sure that none of the slaves of the Lord are here with you, but only the servants of Baal.

24. And when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu put eighty men outside and said, Whoever leaves alive any of the men whom I have brought into your hands, his life shall be for that of the other.

25. And after they had finished offering the burnt offering, Jehu said to those of his guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none escape. And they smote them with the edge of the sword, and the guard and the captains left them where they fell and went to the city of the house of Baal,

26. and they removed the images out of the house of Baal and burned them.

27. And they broke down the image of Baal and broke down the house of Baal and made it a latrine unto this day.

28. Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.

29. However with all this, Jehu did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin with the golden calves that were in Bethel and in Dan.
