Tree of Life Version
1 Kings 16:17-22
17Then Omri and all Israel with him went up from Gibbethon and besieged Tirzah.
18When Zimri saw that the city was captured, he went into the citadel of the royal palace, and burned down the royal palace over him with fire. So he died too,
19because of the sins which he committed, doing what was evil in Adonai’s eyes, walking in the way of Jeroboam and in the sin which he had committed, making Israel sin.
20Now the rest of the deeds of Zimri and his treason that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
21Then the people of Israel were divided into two factions: half of the people followed Tibni son of Ginath, making him king, while the other half followed Omri.
22But the people following Omri prevailed against the people following Tibni son of Ginath. Tibni died, and Omri became king.
