1 # Then the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came to Jehu <03058> the son <01121> of Hanani <02607> against Baasha <01201>, saying <0559> (8800),
2 Forasmuch as I exalted <07311> (8689) thee out of the dust <06083>, and made <05414> (8799) thee prince <05057> over my people <05971> Israel <03478>; and thou hast walked <03212> (8799) in the way <01870> of Jeroboam <03379> , and hast made my people <05971> Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8686), to provoke me to anger <03707> (8687) with their sins <02403>;
3 Behold, I will take away <01197> (8686) the posterity <0310> of Baasha <01201>, and the posterity <0310> of his house <01004>; and will make <05414> (8804) thy house <01004> like the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat <05028>.
4 Him that dieth <04191> (8801) of Baasha <01201> in the city <05892> shall the dogs <03611> eat <0398> (8799); and him that dieth <04191> (8801) of his in the fields <07704> shall the fowls <05775> of the air <08064> eat <0398> (8799).
5 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Baasha <01201>, and what he did <06213> (8804), and his might <01369>, are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>?
6 So Baasha <01201> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) in Tirzah <08656>: and Elah <0425> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
7 And also by the hand <03027> of the prophet <05030> Jehu <03058> the son <01121> of Hanani <02607> came the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> against Baasha <01201>, and against his house <01004>, even for all the evil <07451> that he did <06213> (8804) in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, in provoking him to anger <03707> (8687) with the work <04639> of his hands <03027>, in being like the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379>; and because he killed <05221> (8689) him.
8 In the twenty <06242> <08141> and sixth <08337> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> began Elah <0425> the son <01121> of Baasha <01201> to reign <04427> (8804) over Israel <03478> in Tirzah <08656>, two years <08141>.
9 And his servant <05650> Zimri <02174>, captain <08269> of half <04276> his chariots <07393>, conspired <07194> (8799) against him, as he was in Tirzah <08656>, drinking <08354> (8802) himself drunk <07910> in the house <01004> of Arza <0777> steward of his house <01004> in Tirzah <08656>.
10 And Zimri <02174> went in <0935> (8799) and smote <05221> (8686) him, and killed <04191> (8686) him, in the twenty <06242> and seventh <07651> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063>, and reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
11 And it came to pass, when he began to reign <04427> (8800), as soon as he sat <03427> (8800) on his throne <03678> , that he slew <05221> (8689) all the house <01004> of Baasha <01201>: he left <07604> (8689) him not one that pisseth <08366> (8688) against a wall <07023>, neither of his kinsfolks <01350> (8802), nor of his friends <07453>.
12 Thus did Zimri <02174> destroy <08045> (8686) all the house <01004> of Baasha <01201>, according to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) against Baasha <01201> by <03027> Jehu <03058> the prophet <05030>,
13 For all the sins <02403> of Baasha <01201>, and the sins <02403> of Elah <0425> his son <01121>, by which they sinned <02398> (8804), and by which they made Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8689), in provoking the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> to anger <03707> (8687) with their vanities <01892>.
14 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Elah <0425>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478> ?
15 # In the twenty <06242> <08141> and seventh <07651> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> did Zimri <02174> reign <04427> (8804) seven <07651> days <03117> in Tirzah <08656>. And the people <05971> were encamped <02583> (8802) against Gibbethon <01405>, which belonged to the Philistines <06430>.
16 And the people <05971> that were encamped <02583> (8802) heard <08085> (8799) say <0559> (8800), Zimri <02174> hath conspired <07194> (8804), and hath also slain <05221> (8689) the king <04428>: wherefore all Israel <03478> made Omri <06018>, the captain <08269> of the host <06635>, king <04427> (8686) over Israel <03478> that day <03117> in the camp <04264>.
17 And Omri <06018> went up <05927> (8799) from Gibbethon <01405>, and all Israel <03478> with him, and they besieged <06696> (8799) Tirzah <08656>.
18 And it came to pass, when Zimri <02174> saw <07200> (8800) that the city <05892> was taken <03920> (8738) , that he went <0935> (8799) into the palace <0759> of the king's <04428> house <01004>, and burnt <08313> (8799) the king's <04428> house <01004> over him with fire <0784>, and died <04191> (8799),
19 For his sins <02403> which he sinned <02398> (8804) in doing <06213> (8800) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, in walking <03212> (8800) in the way <01870> of Jeroboam <03379>, and in his sin <02403> which he did <06213> (8804), to make Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8687).
20 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Zimri <02174>, and his treason <07195> that he wrought <07194> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>?
21 Then were the people <05971> of Israel <03478> divided <02505> (8735) into two parts <02677>: half <02677> of the people <05971> followed <01961> (8804) <0310> Tibni <08402> the son <01121> of Ginath <01527>, to make him king <04427> (8687); and half <02677> followed <0310> Omri <06018>.
22 But the people <05971> that followed <0310> Omri <06018> prevailed <02388> (8799) against <0854> the people <05971> that followed <0310> Tibni <08402> the son <01121> of Ginath <01527>: so Tibni <08402> died <04191> (8799), and Omri <06018> reigned <04427> (8799).
23 In the thirty <07970> <08141> and first <0259> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> began Omri <06018> to reign <04427> (8804) over Israel <03478>, twelve <08147> <06240> years <08141> : six <08337> years <08141> reigned <04427> (8804) he in Tirzah <08656>.
24 And he bought <07069> (8799) the hill <02022> Samaria <08111> of Shemer <08106> for two talents <03603> of silver <03701>, and built <01129> (8799) on the hill <02022>, and called <07121> (8799) the name <08034> of the city <05892> which he built <01129> (8804), after the name <08034> of Shemer <08106>, owner <0113> of the hill <02022>, Samaria <08111>.
25 But Omri <06018> wrought <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and did worse <07489> (8686) than all that were before <06440> him.
26 For he walked <03212> (8799) in all the way <01870> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat <05028> , and in his sin <02403> wherewith he made Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8689), to provoke the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> to anger <03707> (8687) with their vanities <01892>.
27 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Omri <06018> which he did <06213> (8804), and his might <01369> that he shewed <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>?
28 So Omri <06018> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) in Samaria <08111>: and Ahab <0256> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
29 # And in the thirty <07970> <08141> and eighth <08083> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> began Ahab <0256> the son <01121> of Omri <06018> to reign <04427> (8804) over Israel <03478>: and Ahab <0256> the son <01121> of Omri <06018> reigned <04427> (8799) over Israel <03478> in Samaria <08111> twenty <06242> and two <08147> years <08141>.
30 And Ahab <0256> the son <01121> of Omri <06018> did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068> above all that were before <06440> him.
31 And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing <07043> (8738) for him to walk <03212> (8800) in the sins <02403> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat <05028>, that he took <03947> (8799) to wife <0802> Jezebel <0348> the daughter <01323> of Ethbaal <0856> king <04428> of the Zidonians <06722>, and went <03212> (8799) and served <05647> (8799) Baal <01168>, and worshipped <07812> (8691) him.
32 And he reared up <06965> (8686) an altar <04196> for Baal <01168> in the house <01004> of Baal <01168> , which he had built <01129> (8804) in Samaria <08111>.
33 And Ahab <0256> made <06213> (8799) a grove <0842>; and Ahab <0256> did <06213> (8800) more <03254> (8686) to provoke the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> to anger <03707> (8687) than all the kings <04428> of Israel <03478> that were before <06440> him.
34 In his days <03117> did Hiel <02419> the Bethelite <01017> build <01129> (8804) Jericho <03405>: he laid the foundation <03245> (8765) thereof in Abiram <048> his firstborn <01060>, and set up <05324> (8689) the gates <01817> thereof in his youngest <06810> son Segub <07687>, according to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) by <03027> Joshua <03091> the son <01121> of Nun <05126>.
