1 Kings 16:6-9

6And Baasha slept with his fathers and was buried in 1Tirzah, and Elah his son became king in his place. 7Moreover, the word of the Lord through 2the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani also came against Baasha and his household, both because of all the evil which he did in the sight of the Lord, provoking Him to anger with 3the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because 4he struck 5it.

8In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha became king over Israel at Tirzah, and reigned two years. 9His servant 6Zimri, commander of half his chariots, conspired against him. Now he was at Tirzah drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, 7who was over the household at Tirzah.
