10:18 Jehu assembled all the people and said to them, “Ahab worshiped 2 Baal a little; Jehu will worship 3 him with great devotion. 4 10:19 So now, bring to me all the prophets of Baal, as well as all his servants and priests. 5 None of them must be absent, for I am offering a great sacrifice to Baal. Any of them who fail to appear will lose their lives.” But Jehu was tricking them 6 so he could destroy the servants of Baal.
