28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha slay him, and reigned in his stead.
29 And when he was king, he [a]smote all the house of Jeroboam, he left none alive to Jeroboam, until he had destroyed him, according to the (A)word of the Lord which he spake by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
30 Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he committed, and wherewith he made Israel to sin, by his [b]provocation, wherewith he provoked the Lord God of Israel.

New International Version
28 Baasha killed Nadab in the third year of Asa king of Judah and succeeded him as king.
29 As soon as he began to reign, he killed Jeroboam’s whole family.(A) He did not leave Jeroboam anyone that breathed, but destroyed them all, according to the word of the Lord given through his servant Ahijah the Shilonite. 30 This happened because of the sins(B) Jeroboam had committed and had caused(C) Israel to commit, and because he aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel.
