New Testament

2 Kings 10:15-20 Modern English Version (MEV)

15. Then he left there and found Jehonadab son of Rekab coming to meet him. He greeted him and said to him, “Is your heart right with me, as my heart is with yours?”And Jehonadab said, “It is.”“If it is, give me your hand.” So he gave him his hand, and he pulled him up to him into the chariot.

16. He said, “Come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord.” So he made him ride in his chariot.

17. Then he came to Samaria and struck all that remained to Ahab in Samaria until he exterminated them, according to the word of the Lord which He spoke to Elijah.

18. Then Jehu gathered all the people and said to them, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him much.

19. Now call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshippers, and all his priests. Let none go unaccounted for, because I have a great sacrifice for Baal. All who are not accounted for will not live.” But Jehu did it with cunning in order to destroy the servants of Baal.

20. Jehu said, “Sanctify a festive assembly for Baal.” So they proclaimed it.
