1 Kings 16:17-22

17Then OmriH6018 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 with him wentH5927 upH5927 from GibbethonH1405 and besiegedH6696H5921 TirzahH8656. 18When ZimriH2174 sawH7200 that the cityH5892 was takenH3920, he wentH935 into the citadelH759 of the king’sH4428 houseH1004 and burnedH8313 the king’sH4428 houseH1004 overH5921 himself with fireH784, and 1diedH4191, 19becauseH5921 of his sinsH2403 whichH834 he 2committedH2398, doingH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, 3walkingH1980 in the wayH1870 of JeroboamH3379, and in his sinH2403 whichH834 he committedH6213, misleadingH2398 IsraelH3478 intoH2398 sinH2398. 204Now as for the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of ZimriH2174 and his conspiracyH7195 whichH834 he 5carriedH7194 outH7194, are they not writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?

21ThenH227 the peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478 were dividedH2505 into twoH2677 partsH2677: halfH2677 of the peopleH5971 followedH1961H310 TibniH8402 the sonH1121 of GinathH1527, to makeH4427 him kingH4427; the other halfH2677 followedH310 OmriH6018. 22But the peopleH5971 whoH834 followedH310 OmriH6018 prevailedH2388 overH2388 the peopleH5971 whoH834 followedH310 TibniH8402 the sonH1121 of GinathH1527. And TibniH8402 diedH4191 and OmriH6018 becameH4427 kingH4427.
