1 Kings 16:6-9

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

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