Shofetim 6:30-32

Orthodox Jewish Bible

³⁰ Then the men of the Ir said unto Yoash, Bring out thy ben, that he may die; because he hath cast down the mizbe’ach of Ba’al, and because he hath cut down the Asherah that was beside it.

³¹ And Yoash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Ba’al? Will ye save him? He that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet boker; if he be Elohim, let him plead for himself, because one hath cast down his mizbe’ach.

³² Therefore on that day he called him Yerubaal, saying, Let Baal contend against him, because he hath torn down his mizbe’ach.
