God’s Word Translation
1 Kings 16:25-29
25Omri did what the Lord considered evil. He did more evil things than all ⌞the kings⌟ before him.
26He lived exactly like Jeroboam (Nebat’s son). He sinned and led Israel to sin with worthless idols, and the Israelites made the Lord God of Israel furious.
27Isn’t everything else about Omri—what he did and his heroic acts—written in the official records of the kings of Israel?
28Omri lay down in death with his ancestors and was buried in Samaria. His son Ahab succeeded him as king.
29Ahab, son of Omri, began to rule Israel in Asa’s thirty-eighth year as king of Judah. He ruled for 22 years in Samaria.
