28So OmriH6018 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 in SamariaH8111: and AhabH256 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.

29And in the thirtyH8141H7970 and eighthH8083 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began AhabH256 the sonH1121 of OmriH6018 to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478: and AhabH256 the sonH1121 of OmriH6018 reignedH4427 over IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111 twentyH6242 and twoH8147 yearsH8141. 30And AhabH256 the sonH1121 of OmriH6018 didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068 above all that were beforeH6440 him. 31And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thingH7043 for him to walkH3212 in the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, that he tookH3947 to wifeH802 JezebelH348 the daughterH1323 of EthbaalH856 kingH4428 of the ZidoniansH6722, and wentH3212 and servedH5647 BaalH1168, and worshippedH7812 him.1 32And he reared upH6965 an altarH4196 for BaalH1168 in the houseH1004 of BaalH1168, which he had builtH1129 in SamariaH8111.
