Chapter 10

KJV - 2 Kings 10:25

And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.

Then, after he finished sacrificing the burnt offering, Jehu told the guards and leaders, "Go inside and kill them all; don't let anyone escape." So they did, using their swords, and then threw the bodies out. The guards and leaders then left to go to the city of Baal's temple.
