25
Now it happened, 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 kill them; let no one come out!" And they killed them with the edge of the sword; then the guards and the officers threw them out, and went into the inner room of the temple of Baal.
26
And they brought the sacred pillars out of the temple of Baal and burned them.
27
Then they broke down the sacred pillar of Baal, and tore down the temple of Baal and made it a refuse dump to this day.
28
Thus Jehu destroyed Baal from Israel.
29
However Jehu did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin, that is, from the golden calves that were at Bethel and Dan.
30
And the Lord said to Jehu, "Because you have done well in doing what is right in My sight, and have done to the house of Ahab all that was in My heart, your sons shall sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation."
31
But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart; for he did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam, who had made Israel sin.
32
In those days the Lord began to cut off parts of Israel; and Hazael conquered them in all the territory of Israel
33
from the Jordan eastward: all the land of Gilead--Gad, Reuben, and Manasseh--from Aroer, which is by the River Arnon, including Gilead and Bashan.
34
Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
35
So Jehu rested with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. Then Jehoahaz his son reigned in his place.
36
And the period that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
