21 "And with these numbers," asked The Priest, "can you destroy The Children of Spirit?"
22 "We would outnumber them a little better than two to one," the temple guard announced. "We could destroy them easily."
23 "Then tomorrow morning," commanded The High Priest, "do it. While they sleep in their tents, attack the encampment. Destroy them. Kill every man. The women and children are yours to do with as you will. Kill them, sell them out of the city as slaves, but get rid of them! No....kill them all, even the women and children. Be satisfied with their goods. I want none of these lice to live. They must all perish."
24 "As you bid, High Priest," responded the temple guard, "that I will do."
25 "The King will be angry at first," continued The High Priest, "but when the rain comes, his anger will pass, and he will praise those who fought for his god this day. When we are done in this city, we will march on their camps in the other cities until there is nothing left of this filth, nothing left of this abomination!"
26 Many of the elders and young priests looked at each other with concern. In the morning many of them would not be in the temple. They would be as far away from The High Priest as they could get.
