1 Kings 16:17-19

New Catholic Bible

¹⁷ Omri and all of Israel departed from Gibbethon and they besieged Tirzah. ¹⁸ When Zimri saw that the city had been captured, he went up into the citadel of the king’s palace and he set the palace on fire around himself and he died. ¹⁹ This was because of the sins that he had committed, doing what was evil in the sight of the Lord and walking in the ways of Jeroboam, in his sin, and causing Israel to sin.
