Melachim Bais 10:16-20 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

16. And he said, Come with me, and see my kina (zeal) for Hashem. So they had him ride in his merkavah.

17. And when he came to Shomron, he slaughtered all that remained unto Ach'av in Shomron, till he had destroyed him, according to the Devar Hashem, which He spoke to Eliyahu.

18. And Yehu gathered kol HaAm together, and said unto them, Ach'av served Ba'al a little; but Yehu shall serve him much.

19. Now therefore summon unto me all the nevi'im of Ba'al, all his avadim, and all his kohanim; let none be wanting; for I have a zevach gadol to do to Ba'al; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall not live. But Yehu did it be'akbah (in cunning, in deception), to the intent that he might destroy the ovdei HaBa'al (worshippers of Ba'al).

20. Yehu said, Proclaim an atzeret (a solemn assembly) for Ba'al. They proclaimed it.
