1 Kings 16:2-13
2Forasmuch as I exaltedH7311 thee out of the dustH6083, and madeH5414 thee princeH5057 over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and thou hast walked in the wayH1870 of JeroboamH3379, and hast madeH5414 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 to sinH2398, provokingH3707 me to angerH3707 with their sinsH2398;
3behold, I will take away BaashaH1201 and his houseH1004, and will makeH5414 thy houseH1004 like the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028.
4Him that dieth of BaashaH1201 in the cityH5892 shall the dogsH3611 eatH398, and him that dieth of his in the fieldH7704 shall the fowl of the heavensH8064 eatH398.
5And the restH3499 of the acts of BaashaH1201, and what he did, and his might, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chronicles of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?
6And BaashaH1201 slept with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 in TirzahH8656; and ElahH425 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
7And alsoH1571 through the prophetH5030 JehuH3058 the sonH1121 of HananiH2607 the wordH1697 of Jehovah came against BaashaH1201, and against his houseH1004, even for all the evilH7451 that he did in the sight of Jehovah, provokingH3707 him to angerH3707 with the workH4639 of his handsH3027, in being like the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379; and because he had smitten him.
8In the twenty-sixth yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, ElahH425 the sonH1121 of BaashaH1201 began to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in TirzahH8656 for two yearsH8141.
9And his servantH5650 ZimriH2174, captain of halfH4276 [his] chariotsH7393, conspired against him; and he was in TirzahH8656, drinkingH8354 himself drunkH8354 in the houseH1004 of Arza, who was the steward of his houseH1004 in TirzahH8656;
10and ZimriH2174 wentH935 in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty-seventh yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and he reignedH4427 in his stead.
11And it came to pass when he began to reignH4427, as soon as he satH3427 on his throneH3678, he slew all the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201: he leftH7604 him not a male, neither of his kinsmen nor of his friendsH7453.
12And ZimriH2174 destroyedH8045 all the houseH1004 of BaashaH1201, according to the wordH1697 of Jehovah, which he spokeH1696 against BaashaH1201 through JehuH3058 the prophetH5030,
13for all the sinsH2398 of BaashaH1201, and the sinsH2398 of ElahH425 his sonH1121, which they sinnedH2398 and wherewith they made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398, provokingH3707 Jehovah the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478 to angerH3707 with their vanitiesH1892.
