2 Kings 10:18-20

Easy-to-Read Version

Jehu Calls the Worshipers of Baal

¹⁸ Then Jehu gathered all the people together and said to them, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve Baal much. ¹⁹ Now call together all the priests and prophets of Baal. And call together everyone who worships Baal. Don’t let anyone miss this meeting. I have a great sacrifice to give to Baal. I will kill anyone who does not come to this meeting.”

But Jehu was tricking them. He wanted to destroy the worshipers of Baal. ²⁰ Jehu said, “Prepare a holy meeting for Baal.” So the priests announced the meeting.
