Tree of Life Version

Jehu Destroys Ahab’s Sons and Baal Worshippers

10 Now Ahab had 70 sons in Samaria. Jehu wrote letters and sent them to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, the elders, and to the guardians of Ahab’s sons, saying: ² “Now as soon as this letter reaches you—since your master’s sons are with you, and you also have chariots and horses, a fortified city and weapons— ³ choose the best and the most worthy of your master’s sons, set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.”
