1Then the word of the LORD came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha, saying:
“the word of the Lord came to Jehu, the son of Hanani, against Baasha, saying,”
2"Even though I lifted you out of the dust and made you ruler over My people Israel, you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have caused My people Israel to sin and to provoke Me to anger by their sins.
“as I lifted you out of the dust and made you ruler over my people, Israel, and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have made my people Israel sin to provoke me to anger with their sins.”
3So now I will consume Baasha and his house, and I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat:
“Surely I will take away the posterity of Basha and the posterity of his house, and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat.”
4Anyone belonging to Baasha who dies in the city will be eaten by dogs, and anyone who dies in the field will be eaten by the birds of the air."
“The dog shall eat whoever belongs to Basha and dies in the city and the birds of the air shall eat whoever dies in the fields.”
5As for the rest of the acts of Baasha, along with his accomplishments and might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
“Now, the rest of the acts of Basha, what he did and his might, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?”
6And Baasha rested with his fathers and was buried in Tirzah, and his son Elah reigned in his place.
“So Basha rested with his fathers and was buried in Tisra. Then Elah, his son, reigned in his place.”
7Moreover, the word of the LORD came through the prophet Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha and his house, because of all the evil he had done in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger with the work of his hands and becoming like the house of Jeroboam, and also because Baasha had struck down the house of Jeroboam.
“And also the word of the Lord came by the prophet Jehu, the son of Hanani, against Basha and his house, because of all the evil that he did in the sight of the Lord, in provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, in being…”
“And also by the hand of the prophet Jehu, the son of Hanani, came the word of the Lord against Baasha, even against his house, even for all of the evil that he did in the sight of the Lord, and provoking him to anger the work of…”
8In the twenty-sixth year of Asa's reign over Judah, Elah son of Baasha became king of Israel, and he reigned in Tirzah two years.
“In the 26th year of Asa, king of Judah, Elah, the son of Basha, became king over Israel. And reigned two years in”
9However, while Elah was in Tirzah getting drunk in the house of Arza the steward of his household there, Elah's servant Zimri, the commander of half his chariots, conspired against him.
“Now his servant Zimri, commander of half his chariots, conspired against him as he was in Tizra, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arzah, steward of his house in”
10So in the twenty-seventh year of Asa's reign over Judah, Zimri went in, struck Elah down, and killed him. And Zimri reigned in his place.
“And Zimri went in and struck him and killed him in the 27th year of king Asa of Judah, and reigned in his place.”
11As soon as Zimri began to reign and was seated on the throne, he struck down the entire household of Baasha. He did not leave a single male, whether a kinsman or friend.
“Then it came to pass when he began to reign, as soon as he was seated on his throne, that he killed all the household of Basha. He did not leave him one male, neither of his relatives nor of his friends.”
12So Zimri destroyed the entire household of Baasha, according to the word that the LORD had spoken against Baasha through Jehu the prophet.
“Thus Zimri destroyed all the household of Basha, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke against Basha by Jehu the prophet,”
13This happened because of all the sins Baasha and his son Elah had committed and had caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.
“for all the sins of Basha and the sins of Elah his son, by which they had sinned and by which they had made Israel sin in provoking the Lord God of Israel to angle with their idols.”
14As for the rest of the acts of Elah, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
“Now the rest of the acts of Elah and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?”
“Now, the rest of the acts of Elah and all that he did, they are written in the books of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel.”
15In the twenty-seventh year of Asa's reign over Judah, Zimri reigned in Tirzah for seven days. Now the troops were encamped against Gibbethon of the Philistines,
“In the 27th year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri had reigned in Tisra seven days. And the people were encamped against Gibethon, which belonged to the Philistines.”
16and the people in the camp heard that Zimri had not only conspired but had also struck down the king. So there in the camp that very day, all Israel proclaimed Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel.
“Now the people who were encamped heard it said, Zimri has conspired and also has killed the king. So all Israel made Omri the commander of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.”
17Then Omri and all the Israelites marched up from Gibbethon and besieged Tirzah.

19because of the sins he had committed, doing evil in the sight of the LORD and following the example of Jeroboam and the sin he had committed and had caused Israel to commit.

21At that time the people of Israel were divided: Half of the people supported Tibni son of Ginath as king, and half supported Omri.
“Then the people of Israel were divided into two parts. Half of the people followed Tibni, the son of Gennath, to make him king, and half followed Omri.”
22But the followers of Omri proved stronger than those of Tibni son of Ginath. So Tibni died and Omri became king.
“But the people who followed Omri prevailed over the people who followed Tibni, the son of Gennath. So Tibni died and Omri reigned”

28And Omri rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab reigned in his place.
“So Omri rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria. Then Ahab his son reigned in his place.”
“So Omri slept with his fathers. He was buried in Samaria. And Ahab, his son, reigned in his stead.”

31And as if it were not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, he even married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and he then proceeded to serve and worship Baal.
