1 Kings 16:23-28

23In the thirtyH7970H8141 and firstH259 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began OmriH6018 to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478, twelveH8147H6240 yearsH8141: sixH8337 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in TirzahH8656. 24And he boughtH7069 the hillH2022 SamariaH8111 of ShemerH8106 for two talentsH3603 of silverH3701, and builtH1129 on the hillH2022, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 which he builtH1129, after the nameH8034 of ShemerH8106, ownerH113 of the hillH2022, SamariaH8111.1 25But OmriH6018 wroughtH6213 evilH7451 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, and did worseH7489 than all that were beforeH6440 him. 26For he walkedH3212 in all the wayH1870 of JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, and in his sinH2403 which he made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398, to provoke the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 to angerH3707 with their vanitiesH1892. 27Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of OmriH6018 which he didH6213, and his mightH1369 that he showedH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478? 28So OmriH6018 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 in SamariaH8111: and AhabH256 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
