27 Then (A)Baasha the son of Ahijah of the house of Issachar conspired against him, and Baasha struck him down at (B)Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines, while Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.

28 So Baasha put him to death in the third year of Asa king of Judah and became king in his place. 29 Now it happened that as soon as he was king, he struck down all the household of Jeroboam. He did not leave to Jeroboam anyone who drew breath, until he had destroyed them, (C)according to the word of Yahweh, which He spoke by the hand of His servant Ahijah the Shilonite, 30 and because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and (D)which he made Israel sin, because of his provocation with which he provoked Yahweh, the God of Israel, to anger.

31 (E)Now the rest of the acts of Nadab and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

27 Baasha son of Ahijah from the tribe of Issachar plotted against him, and he struck him down(A) at Gibbethon,(B) a Philistine town, while Nadab and all Israel were besieging it. 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.(C) 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(D) Jeroboam had committed and had caused(E) Israel to commit, and because he aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel.
