2 Kings 10:24-26

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁴ Then he^[a] went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings.

Now Jehu had stationed eighty men outside, and said, “The man who allows any of those whom I give into your hands to escape shall forfeit his life.” ²⁵ So as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, Jehu said to the guard and to the officers, “Go in and slay them; let not a man escape.” So when they put them to the sword, the guard and the officers cast them out and went into the inner room^[b] of the house of Ba′al ²⁶ and they brought out the pillar that was in the house of Ba′al, and burned it.
