1 Kings 16:17-22

17And OmriH6018 wentH5927 up from GibbethonH1405, and all IsraelH3478 with him, and they besieged TirzahH8656.

18And it cameH935 to pass when ZimriH2174 sawH7200 that the cityH5892 wasH1961 takenH3920, that he wentH935 into the citadel of the king's houseH1004, and burnedH8313 the king's houseH1004 over him with fireH784;

19and he died for his sinsH2398 which he sinnedH2398 in doing evilH7451 in the sight of Jehovah, in walking in the wayH1870 of JeroboamH3379, and in his sinH2398 which he did, makingH6213 IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.

20And the restH3499 of the acts of ZimriH2174, and his conspiracyH7195 which he wrought, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chronicles of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?

21ThenH227 wereH1961 the peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478 dividedH2505 into two parts: halfH2677 of the peopleH5971 followed TibniH8402 the sonH1121 of GinathH1527, to make him kingH4427; and halfH2677 followed OmriH6018.

22But the peopleH5971 that followed OmriH6018 overcame the peopleH5971 that followed TibniH8402 the sonH1121 of GinathH1527; and TibniH8402 diedH4191, and OmriH6018 reignedH4427.
