Chapter 10
And
Ahab
had
seuentie
sonnes
in
Samaria:
and
Iehu
wrote
letters,
and
sent
to
Samaria
vnto
the
rulers
of
Iezreel,
to
the
Elders,
and
to
them
that
brought
vp
Ahabs
children,
saying,
2
Now
assoone
as
this
letter
commeth
to
you,
seeing
your
masters
sons
are
with
you,
and
there
are
with
you
charets
and
horses,
a
fenced
citie
also,
and
armour:
3
Looke
euen
out
the
best
and
meetest
of
your
masters
sonnes,
and
set
him
on
his
fathers
throne,
and
fight
for
your
masters
house.
4
But
they
were
exceedingly
afraid,
and
said,
Behold,
two
kings
stood
not
before
him:
how
then
shall
we
stand?
5
And
he
that
was
ouer
the
house,
and
he
that
was
ouer
the
citie,
the
elders
also,
and
the
bringers
vp
of
the
children,
sent
to
Iehu,
saying,
Wee
are
thy
seruants,
and
will
doe
all
that
thou
shalt
bid
vs,
we
will
not
make
any
king:
doe
thou
that
which
is
good
in
thine
eyes.
6
Then
he
wrote
a
letter
the
second
time
to
them,
saying,
If
yee
be
mine,
and
if
ye
will
hearken
vnto
my
voyce,
take
ye
the
heads
of
the
men
your
masters
sonnes,
and
come
to
me
to
Iezreel
by
to
morow
this
time:
(now
the
kings
sonnes
being
seuenty
persons,
were
with
the
great
men
of
the
city,
which
brought
them
vp.)
7
And
it
came
to
passe
when
the
letter
came
to
them,
that
they
tooke
the
kings
sonnes,
and
slewe
seuentie
persons,
and
put
their
heads
in
baskets,
and
sent
him
them
to
Iezreel.
8
And
there
came
a
messenger,
and
tolde
him,
saying,
They
haue
brought
the
heads
of
the
kings
sonnes.
And
he
said,
Lay
ye
them
in
two
heaps
at
the
entring
in
of
the
gate,
vntill
the
morning.
9
And
it
came
to
passe
in
the
morning,
that
he
went
out,
&
stood,
and
said
to
all
the
people,
Ye
be
righteous:
behold,
I
conspired
against
my
master,
and
slew
him:
But
who
slew
all
these?
10
Know
now,
that
there
shall
fall
vnto
the
earth
nothing
of
the
worde
of
the
Lord,
which
the
Lord
spake
concerning
the
house
of
Ahab:
for
the
Lord
hath
done
that
which
he
spake
by
his
seruant
Elijah.
11
So
Iehu
slew
all
that
remained
of
the
house
of
Ahab,
in
Iezreel,
and
all
his
great
men,
and
his
kinsefolkes,
and
his
priests,
vntill
he
left
him
none
remaining.
12
And
hee
arose,
and
departed,
and
came
to
Samaria:
And
as
he
was
at
the
shearing
house
in
the
way,
13
Iehu
met
with
the
brethren
of
Ahaziah
king
of
Iudah,
and
said,
Who
are
ye?
And
they
answered,
Wee
are
the
brethren
of
Ahaziah,
and
we
go
downe
to
salute
the
children
of
the
King,
and
the
children
of
the
Queene.
14
And
hee
said,
Take
them
aliue.
And
they
tooke
them
aliue,
and
slew
them
at
the
pit
of
the
shearing
house,
euen
two
and
fourty
men;
neither
left
he
any
of
them.
15
And
when
hee
was
departed
thence,
he
lighted
on
Iehonadab
the
sonne
of
Rechab,
comming
to
meet
him:
and
he
saluted
him,
&
said
to
him,
Is
thine
heart
right,
as
my
heart
is
with
thy
heart?
And
Iehonadab
answered,
It
is:
If
it
be,
giue
mee
thine
hand.
And
hee
gaue
him
his
hand,
and
hee
tooke
him
vp
to
him
into
the
charet.
16
And
he
said,
Come
with
me,
and
see
my
zeale
for
the
Lord:
so
they
made
him
ride
in
his
charet.
17
And
when
he
came
to
Samaria,
he
slew
all
that
remained
vnto
Ahab
in
Samaria,
till
he
had
destroyed
him,
according
to
the
saying
of
the
Lord,
which
he
spake
to
Eliiah.
18
And
Iehu
gathered
all
the
people
together,
and
said
vnto
them,
Ahab
serued
Baal
a
litle,
but
Iehu
shall
serue
him
much.
19
Now
therefore,
call
vnto
me
all
the
prophets
of
Baal,
all
his
seruants,
and
all
his
priests,
let
none
be
wanting:
for
I
haue
a
great
sacrifice
to
doe
to
Baal;
whosoeuer
shall
be
wanting,
he
shall
not
liue.
But
Iehu
did
it
in
subtilitie,
to
the
intent
that
hee
might
destroy
the
worshippers
of
Baal.
20
And
Iehu
said,
Proclaime
a
solemne
assembly
for
Baal.
And
they
proclaimed
it.
21
And
Iehu
sent
through
all
Israel,
and
all
the
worshippers
of
Baal
came,
so
that
there
was
not
a
man
left
that
came
not:
and
they
came
into
the
house
of
Baal;
and
the
house
of
Baal
was
full
from
one
end
to
another.
22
And
he
said
vnto
him
that
was
ouer
the
vestrie,
Bring
forth
vestments
for
all
the
worshippers
of
Baal.
And
he
brought
them
forth
vestments.
23
And
Iehu
went,
and
Iehonadab
the
sonne
of
Rechab
into
the
house
of
Baal,
and
said
vnto
the
worshippers
of
Baal,
Search,
and
looke
that
there
be
here
with
you
none
of
the
seruants
of
the
Lord,
but
the
worshippers
of
Baal
onely.
24
And
when
they
went
in
to
offer
sacrifices,
and
burnt
offerings,
Iehu
appointed
fourescore
men
without,
and
said,
If
any
of
the
men
whom
I
haue
brought
into
your
hands,
escape,
hee
that
letteth
him
goe,
his
life
shall
be
for
the
life
of
him.
25
And
it
came
to
passe
assoone
as
hee
had
made
an
end
of
offering
the
burnt
offering,
that
Iehu
saide
to
the
guard,
and
to
the
captaines,
Goe
in,
and
slay
them,
let
none
come
foorth.
And
they
smote
them
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
and
the
guard,
and
the
captaines
cast
them
out,
and
went
to
the
citie
of
the
house
of
Baal.
26
And
they
brought
foorth
the
Images
out
of
the
house
of
Baal,
and
burnt
them.
27
And
they
brake
downe
the
image
of
Baal,
and
brake
downe
the
house
of
Baal,
and
made
it
a
draughthouse,
vnto
this
day.
28
Thus
Iehu
destroyed
Baal
out
of
Israel.
29
Howbeit,
from
the
sinnes
of
Ieroboam
the
sonne
of
Nebat,
who
made
Israel
to
sinne,
Iehu
departed
not
from
after
them,
to
wit,
the
golden
calues
that
were
in
Bethel,
and
that
were
in
Dan.
30
And
the
Lord
said
vnto
Iehu,
Because
thou
hast
done
well
in
executing
that
which
is
right
in
mine
eyes,
and
hast
done
vnto
the
house
of
Ahab
according
to
all
that
was
in
mine
heart,
thy
children
of
the
fourth
generation,
shal
sit
on
the
throne
of
Israel.
31
But
Iehu
tooke
no
heede
to
walke
in
the
Law
of
the
Lord
God
of
Israel,
with
all
his
heart:
for
he
departed
not
from
the
sinnes
of
Ieroboam,
which
made
Israel
to
sinne.
32
In
those
dayes
the
Lord
began
to
cut
Israel
short:
and
Hazael
smote
them
in
all
the
coasts
of
Israel:
33
From
Iordan
Eastward,
all
the
land
of
Gilead,
the
Gadites,
and
the
Reubenites,
and
the
Manassites,
from
Aroer,
(which
is
by
the
riuer
Arnon)
euen
Gilead
and
Bashan.
34
Now
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Iehu,
and
all
that
he
did,
&
all
his
might,
are
they
not
written
in
the
booke
of
the
Chronicles
of
the
kings
of
Israel?
35
And
Iehu
slept
with
his
fathers,
and
they
buried
him
in
Samaria,
and
Iehoahaz
his
sonne
reigned
in
his
stead.
36
And
the
time
that
Iehu
reigned
ouer
Israel
in
Samaria,
was
twentie
and
eight
yeeres.
