Tree of Life Version
1 Kings 16:1-7
1Now the word of Adonai came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasa, saying:
2“Since I raised you up from the dust and made you ruler over My people Israel, yet you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have caused My people Israel to sin, vexing Me with their sins.
3I am about to consume Baasa and his house. I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat.
4Anyone of Baasa who dies in the city, the dogs will eat, and anyone of his who dies in the field, the birds of the sky will eat.”
5Now the rest of the deeds of Baasa and what he did and his might, are they not written in Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
6Then Baasa slept with his fathers and was buried in Tirzah, and his son Elah became king in his place.
7But the word of Adonai had already come by the hand of the prophet Jehu son of Hanani against Baasa and against his house, because of all the evil he had done in Adonai’s eyes, vexing Him with the work of his hands, becoming thus like the house of Jeroboam which He struck down.
