Judges 6:30-32

Lexham English Bible

³⁰ And the men of the city said to Jehoash, “Bring out your son so that he may die, for he has pulled down the altar of Baal and cut down the Asherah that was beside it.” ³¹ But Jehoash said to all who stood against him,^[a] “Will you contend for Baal? Will you rescue him? Whoever contends for him will be put to death by the morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself because his altar has been pulled down.”^{[b] 32} Thus, on that day he^[c] was called Jerub-Baal, which means,^[d] “Let Baal contend against him,” because he had pulled down his altar.
