1 Kings 16:30-34

30AhabH256 the sonH1121 of OmriH6018 didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068 1moreH4480 thanH4480 allH3605 whoH834 were beforeH6440 him.

31It cameH1961 about, as though it had been a trivialH7043 thingH7043 for him to walkH1980 in the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, that 2he marriedH3947H802 JezebelH348 the daughterH1323 of EthbaalH856 kingH4428 of the 3SidoniansH6722, and wentH1980 to serveH5647 BaalH1168 and worshipedH7812 him. 32So he erectedH6965 an altarH4196 for BaalH1168 in 4the houseH1004 of BaalH1168 whichH834 he builtH1129 in SamariaH8111. 33AhabH256 also madeH6213 5the 6AsherahH842. Thus 7AhabH256 didH6213 moreH3254 to provokeH3707 the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 thanH4480 allH3605 the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 were beforeH6440 him. 348In his daysH3117 HielH2419 the BetheliteH1017 builtH1129 JerichoH3405; he laidH3245 its foundationsH3245 with the loss of AbiramH48 his firstbornH1060, and setH5324 up its gatesH1817 with the loss of his youngestH6810 son SegubH7687, according to the wordH1697 of the LordH3068, whichH834 He spokeH1696 by JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126.
