Chapter 10

KJV - 2 Kings 10:19

Now therefore call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be wanting: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtilty, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.

So, gather all of Baal's prophets, servants, and priests for a big sacrifice. If anyone is missing, they will die. However, Jehu cleverly did this to secretly eliminate those who worshipped Baal.
