1. Now the word of the Lord came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,
|
1. Then the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 to H413 Jehu H3058 the son H1121 of Hanani H2607 against H5921 Baasha H1201 , saying H559 ,
|
2. "I took you from the dust and gave you honor. I made you leader over My people Israel. But you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have made My people Israel sin. You have made Me angry with their sins.
|
2. Forasmuch H3282 H834 as I exalted H7311 thee out of H4480 the dust H6083 , and made H5414 thee prince H5057 over H5921 my people H5971 Israel H3478 ; and thou hast walked H1980 in the way H1870 of Jeroboam H3379 , and hast made H853 my people H5971 Israel H3478 to sin H2398 , to provoke me to anger H3707 with their sins H2403 ;
|
3. So I will destroy Baasha and his house. I will make your house like the family of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
|
3. Behold H2009 , I will take away H1197 the posterity H310 of Baasha H1201 , and the posterity H310 of his house H1004 ; and will make H5414 H853 thy house H1004 like the house H1004 of Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat H5028 .
|
4. The dogs will eat anyone of Baasha's family who dies in the city. And the birds of the air will eat anyone of his who dies in the field."
|
4. Him that dieth H4191 of Baasha H1201 in the city H5892 shall the dogs H3611 eat H398 ; and him that dieth H4191 of his in the fields H7704 shall the fowls H5775 of the air H8064 eat H398 .
|
5. The rest of the acts of Baasha and what he did and his strength, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
|
5. Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Baasha H1201 , and what H834 he did H6213 , and his might H1369 , are they H1992 not H3808 written H3789 in H5921 the book H5612 of the chronicles H1697 H3117 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 ?
|
6. Baasha died and was buried in Tirzah. His son Elah became king in his place.
|
6. So Baasha H1201 slept H7901 with H5973 his fathers H1 , and was buried H6912 in Tirzah H8656 : and Elah H425 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
|
7. The word of the Lord came against Baasha and his house through the man who spoke for God, Jehu the son of Hanani because Baasha had done what was sinful in the eyes of the Lord. He made the Lord angry with the work of his hands, in being like the family of Jeroboam, and because he destroyed it.
|
7. And also H1571 by the hand H3027 of the prophet H5030 Jehu H3058 the son H1121 of Hanani H2607 came H1961 the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 against H413 Baasha H1201 , and against H413 his house H1004 , even for H5921 all H3605 the evil H7451 that H834 he did H6213 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 , in provoking him to anger H3707 with the work H4639 of his hands H3027 , in being H1961 like the house H1004 of Jeroboam H3379 ; and because H5921 H834 he killed H5221 him.
|
8. In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha became king of Israel at Tirzah. He ruled for two years.
|
8. In the twenty H6242 and sixth H8337 year H8141 of Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 began Elah H425 the son H1121 of Baasha H1201 to reign H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478 in Tirzah H8656 , two years H8141 .
|
9. His servant Zimri, captain of half his war-wagons, made plans against him. Elah was at Tirzah drinking himself drunk in the family of Arza. Arza was the head of the house at Tirzah.
|
9. And his servant H5650 Zimri H2174 , captain H8269 of half H4276 his chariots H7393 , conspired H7194 against H5921 him , as he H1931 was in Tirzah H8656 , drinking H8354 himself drunk H7910 in the house H1004 of Arza H777 steward H5921 of his house H1004 in Tirzah H8656 .
|
10. Zimri went in and hit him and killed him, in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah. And Zimri became king in his place.
|
10. And Zimri H2174 went in H935 and smote H5221 him , and killed H4191 him , in the twenty H6242 and seventh H7651 year H8141 of Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 , and reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
|
11. When he became king, as soon as he sat on his throne, he killed all those of Baasha's house. He did not leave alive one male, of his brothers or of his friends.
|
11. And it came to pass H1961 , when he began to reign H4427 , as soon as he sat H3427 on H5921 his throne H3678 , that he slew H5221 H853 all H3605 the house H1004 of Baasha H1201 : he left H7604 him not H3808 one that pisseth H8366 against a wall H7023 , neither of his kinsfolk H1350 , nor of his friends H7453 .
|
12. So Zimri destroyed the whole family of Baasha, as was spoken against Baasha by the word of the Lord through Jehu the man who spoke for God.
|
12. Thus did Zimri H2174 destroy H8045 H853 all H3605 the house H1004 of Baasha H1201 , according to the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 , which H834 he spoke H1696 against H413 Baasha H1201 by H3027 Jehu H3058 the prophet H5030 ,
|
13. It happened because of all the sins of Baasha and his son Elah. They sinned and they made Israel sin. They made the Lord God of Israel angry with their false gods.
|
13. For H413 all H3605 the sins H2403 of Baasha H1201 , and the sins H2403 of Elah H425 his son H1121 , by which H834 they sinned H2398 , and by which H834 they made Israel to sin H2398 H853 H3478 , in provoking H3707 H853 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 to anger with their vanities H1892 .
|
14. 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?
|
14. Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Elah H425 , and all H3605 that H834 he did H6213 , are they H1992 not H3808 written H3789 in H5921 the book H5612 of the chronicles H1697 H3117 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 ?
|
15. In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri ruled seven days at Tirzah. Now the people were gathered against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.
|
15. In the twenty H6242 and seventh H7651 year H8141 of Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 did Zimri H2174 reign H4427 seven H7651 days H3117 in Tirzah H8656 . And the people H5971 were encamped H2583 against H5921 Gibbethon H1405 , which H834 belonged to the Philistines H6430 .
|
16. The people who were gathered heard it said, "Zimri has made plans and has killed the king." So all Israel made Omri, the captain of the army, the king of Israel that day among the tents.
|
16. And the people H5971 that were encamped H2583 heard H8085 say H559 , Zimri H2174 hath conspired H7194 , and hath also H1571 slain H5221 H853 the king H4428 : wherefore all H3605 Israel H3478 made H853 Omri H6018 , the captain H8269 of the host H6635 , king H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478 that H1931 day H3117 in the camp H4264 .
|
17. Then Omri went with all Israel up from Gibbethon, and they gathered in battle around Tirzah.
|
17. And Omri H6018 went up H5927 from H4480 Gibbethon H1405 , and all H3605 Israel H3478 with H5973 him , and they besieged H6696 H5921 Tirzah H8656 .
|
18. When Zimri saw that the city was taken, he went into an inside room of the king's house. And he burned the king's house over him with fire, and died.
|
18. And it came to pass H1961 , when Zimri H2174 saw H7200 that H3588 the city H5892 was taken H3920 , that he went H935 into H413 the palace H759 of the king H4428 's house H1004 , and burnt H8313 H853 the king H4428 's house H1004 over H5921 him with fire H784 , and died H4191 ,
|
19. He died because of his sins. He did what was sinful in the eyes of the Lord, walking in the way of Jeroboam. And in his sin, he made Israel sin.
|
19. For H5921 his sins H2403 which H834 he sinned H2398 in doing H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 , in walking H1980 in the way H1870 of Jeroboam H3379 , and in his sin H2403 which H834 he did H6213 , to make Israel to sin H2398 H853 H3478 .
|
20. The rest of the acts of Zimri and the plan he made, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
|
20. Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Zimri H2174 , and his treason H7195 that H834 he wrought H7194 , are they H1992 not H3808 written H3789 in H5921 the book H5612 of the chronicles H1697 H3117 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 ?
|
21. Then the people of Israel were divided into two parts. Half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king. The other half followed Omri.
|
21. Then H227 were the people H5971 of Israel H3478 divided H2505 into two parts H2677 : half H2677 of the people H5971 followed H1961 H310 Tibni H8402 the son H1121 of Ginath H1527 , to make him king H4427 ; and half H2677 followed H310 Omri H6018 .
|
22. But the people who followed Omri won over the people who followed Tibni the son of Ginath. Tibni died and Omri became king.
|
22. But the people H5971 that H834 followed H310 Omri H6018 prevailed against H2388 H853 the people H5971 that H834 followed H310 Tibni H8402 the son H1121 of Ginath H1527 : so Tibni H8402 died H4191 , and Omri H6018 reigned H4427 .
|
23. In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri became the king of Israel. He ruled for twelve years. He ruled six years at Tirzah.
|
23. In the thirty H7970 and first H259 year H8141 of Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 began Omri H6018 to reign H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478 , twelve H8147 H6240 years H8141 : six H8337 years H8141 reigned H4427 he in Tirzah H8656 .
|
24. And he bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for silver weighing as much as two men. He built on the hill, and gave the city he built the name of Samaria, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill.
|
24. And he bought H7069 H853 the hill H2022 Samaria H8111 of H4480 H854 Shemer H8106 for two talents H3603 of silver H3701 , and built on H1129 H853 the hill H2022 , and called H7121 H853 the name H8034 of the city H5892 which H834 he built H1129 , after H5921 the name H8034 of Shemer H8106 , owner H113 of the hill H2022 , Samaria H8111 .
|
25. Omri did what was sinful in the eyes of the Lord. He acted worse than all who were before him.
|
25. But Omri H6018 wrought H6213 evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 of the LORD H3068 , and did worse H7489 than all H4480 H3605 that H834 were before H6440 him.
|
26. For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat. And in his sin he made Israel sin. They made the Lord God of Israel angry with their false gods.
|
26. For he walked H1980 in all H3605 the way H1870 of Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat H5028 , and in his sin H2403 wherewith H834 he made Israel to sin H2398 H853 H3478 , to provoke H3707 H853 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 to anger with their vanities H1892 .
|
27. Now the rest of the acts of Omri and the strength that he showed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
|
27. Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 of Omri H6018 which H834 he did H6213 , and his might H1369 that H834 he showed H6213 , are they H1992 not H3808 written H3789 in H5921 the book H5612 of the chronicles H1697 H3117 of the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 ?
|
28. Omri died and was buried in Samaria. His son Ahab became king in his place.
|
28. So Omri H6018 slept H7901 with H5973 his fathers H1 , and was buried H6912 in Samaria H8111 : and Ahab H256 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
|
29. Omri's son Ahab became king of Israel in the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah. He ruled over Israel in Samaria for twenty-two years.
|
29. And in the thirty H7970 and eighth H8083 year H8141 of Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 began Ahab H256 the son H1121 of Omri H6018 to reign H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478 : and Ahab H256 the son H1121 of Omri H6018 reigned H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478 in Samaria H8111 twenty H6242 and two H8147 years H8141 .
|
30. Ahab the son of Omri did what was sinful in the eyes of the Lord more than all who were before him.
|
30. And Ahab H256 the son H1121 of Omri H6018 did H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 above all H4480 H3605 that H834 were before H6440 him.
|
31. He thought it was a small thing to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat. He married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians. Then he went to serve the false god Baal and worshiped him.
|
31. And it came to pass H1961 , as if it had been a light thing H7043 for him to walk H1980 in the sins H2403 of Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat H5028 , that he took H3947 to wife H802 H853 Jezebel H348 the daughter H1323 of Ethbaal H856 king H4428 of the Zidonians H6722 , and went H1980 and served H5647 H853 Baal H1168 , and worshiped H7812 him.
|
32. He built an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he built in Samaria.
|
32. And he reared up H6965 an altar H4196 for Baal H1168 in the house H1004 of Baal H1168 , which H834 he had built H1129 in Samaria H8111 .
|
33. Ahab made an object of wood to look like the false goddess Asherah. So Ahab did more to make the Lord God of Israel angry than all the kings of Israel before him.
|
33. And Ahab H256 made H6213 H853 a grove H842 ; and Ahab H256 did H6213 more H3254 to provoke H3707 H853 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 to anger than all H4480 H3605 the kings H4428 of Israel H3478 that H834 were H1961 before H6440 him.
|
34. In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho. His first-born son Abiram died as he began to build the city. His youngest son Segub died as he put up its gates. It happened as it was told by the word of the Lord spoken by Joshua the son of Nun.
|
34. In his days H3117 did Hiel H2419 the Bethelite H1017 build H1129 H853 Jericho H3405 : he laid the foundation H3245 thereof in Abiram H48 his firstborn H1060 , and set up H5324 the gates H1817 thereof in his youngest H6810 son Segub H7687 , according to the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 , which H834 he spoke H1696 by H3027 Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Nun H5126 .
