2 Kings 10
1 Jehu, by his letters, causeth seventy of Ahab's children to be beheaded. 8 He excuseth the fact by the prophecy of Elijah. 12 At the shearing house he slayeth two and forty of Ahaziah's brethren. 15 He taketh Jehonadab into his company. 18 By subtilty he destroyeth all the worshippers of Baal. 29 Jehu followeth Jeroboam's sins. 32 Hazael oppresseth Israel. 35 Jehoahaz succeedeth Jehu.

10:15 ¶
And when hee was departed

3824
And Iehonadab

559
z8799
It is:
3426
If it be,

10:17
And when he came

7235
z8687

10:19
Now
x6258
therefore, call

z8798
vnto
x413
me all
x3605
the prophets
5030
of Baal,
1168
all
x3605
his seruants,
5647
z8802
and all

3548
let none

1168
And they proclaimed

3478
and all
x3605
the worshippers

935
z8799
so that there was not
x3808
a man
376
left
7604
z8738
that

And he said

1168
And he brought them forth

1168
onely.
x905

10:24
And when they went in
935
z8799
to offer
6213
z8800
sacrifices,
2077
and burnt offerings,
5930
Iehu
3058
appointed

10:25
And it came to passe
x1961
assoone as hee had made an end
3615
z8763

7991
Goe in,

[and] slay
5221
z8685

3318
z8799
And they smote
5221
z8686
them with the edge
6310
of the sword,
2719
and the guard,
7323
z8801
and the captaines
7991
cast them out,
7993
z8686
and went

Thus Iehu

3478
x4480

10:29 ¶
Howbeit,
x7535
[from] the sinnes
2399
of Ieroboam
3379
the sonne
1121
of Nebat,
5028
who
x834
made
x853
Israel
3478
to sinne,
2398
z8689
Iehu
3058
departed
5493
z8804
not

[were] in Bethel,
1008
and that

[were] in Dan.
1835

10:30
And the LORD
3068
said
559
z8799
vnto
x413
Iehu,
3058
Because
x3282
x834
thou hast done well
2895
z8689
in executing
6213
z8800
that which is right
3477
in mine eyes,
5869
[and] hast done
6213
z8804
vnto the house
1004
of Ahab
256
according to all
x3605
that
x834
[was] in mine heart,
3824
thy children
1121
of the fourth
7243
[generation], shal sit
3427
z8799
on
x5921
the throne
3678
of Israel.
3478

10:31
But Iehu
3058
tooke no heede
8104
z8804
x3808
to walke
y3212
z8800
x1980
in the Law
8451
of the LORD
3068
God
430
of Israel,
3478
with all
x3605
his heart:
3824
[for] he departed
5493
z8804
not
x3808
from
x4480
x5921
the sinnes
2403
of Ieroboam,
3379
which
x834
made
x853
Israel
3478
to sinne.
2398
z8689

10:32 ¶
In those
x1992
dayes
3117
the LORD
3068
began
2490
z8689
to cut
y7096
z0

z8763
x3478
and Hazael
2371

5221
z8686
them in all
x3605
