New Testament

2 Kings 10:24-27 New International Version (NIV)

24. So they went in to make sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had posted eighty men outside with this warning: “If one of you lets any of the men I am placing in your hands escape, it will be your life for his life.”

25. As soon as Jehu had finished making the burnt offering, he ordered the guards and officers: “Go in and kill them; let no one escape.” So they cut them down with the sword. The guards and officers threw the bodies out and then entered the inner shrine of the temple of Baal.

26. They brought the sacred stone out of the temple of Baal and burned it.

27. They demolished the sacred stone of Baal and tore down the temple of Baal, and people have used it for a latrine to this day.
