Rotherham(i)
18 Then Jehu gathered together all the people, and said unto them,––Ahab, served Baal, a little,––Jehu, will serve him, much.
19 Now, therefore, all the prophets of Baal, all his servants and all his priests, call ye for me; do not let, a man, be missing; for, a great sacrifice, have I, to Baal, no one that is missing, shall live. But, Jehu, acted, craftily, to the end he might destroy the servants of Baal.
20 And Jehu said––Hallow ye a solemn festival unto Baal. And they made proclamation.
21 And Jehu sent throughout all Israel, and all the servants of Baal came in, so that there was not left remaining a man, who had not come in,––and they entered the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was filled, from door to door.
22 Then said he to him who was over the wardrobe chamber, Bring forth vestments for all the servants of Baal. And he brought forth for them the vestments.
23 Then entered Jehu, with Jehonadab son of Rechab, into the house of Baal,––and he said unto the servants of Baal––Search ye and see, that there be not here, with you, any of the servants of Yahweh, none but the servants of Baal, alone.
24 And, when they entered to offer sacrifices and ascending–offerings, Jehu, set him, outside, eighty men, and said––The man who shall escape, of the men whom I am bringing into your power, his own life, shall be for, his life.
25 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the ascending–sacrifice, that Jehu said to the runners and to the officers––Enter, smite them, let not, a man, get out. So they smote them, with the edge of the sword,––and the runners and the officers cast them out, and then went as far as the city of the house of Baal,
26 and brought forth the idolatrous pillars that were in the house of Baal, and then burned it;
27 and they brake down the pillars of Baal,––and brake down the house of Baal, and appointed it for a sewer–house––until this day.
28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
