17 Then Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged [a]Tirzah.
18 And when Zimri saw, that the city was taken, he went into the palace of the king’s house, and [b]burnt himself, and the king’s house with fire, and so died,
19 For his sins which he sinned, in doing that which is evil in the sight of the Lord, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sins which he did, causing Israel to sin.
