1 Kings 16:24-26
24He bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver1 and built a city there, calling it Samaria after the name of Shemer, who had owned the hill.
25But Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD and acted more wickedly than all who were before him. 26For he walked in all the ways of Jeroboam son of Nebat and in his sins, which he caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.
