1 Kings 15:27-31
Christian Standard Bible
27 Then Baasha(A) son of Ahijah of the house of Issachar conspired against Nadab, and Baasha struck him down at Gibbethon(B) of the Philistines while Nadab and all Israel were besieging Gibbethon. 28 In the third year of Judah’s King Asa,(C) Baasha killed Nadab(D) and reigned in his place.
29 When Baasha became king, he struck down the entire house of Jeroboam.(E) He did not leave Jeroboam any survivors but[a] destroyed his family according to the word of the Lord he had spoken through his servant Ahijah the Shilonite.(F) 30 This was because Jeroboam had angered[b] the Lord God of Israel by the sins he had committed and had caused Israel to commit.(G)
31 The rest of the events of Nadab’s reign, along with all his accomplishments, are written in the Historical Record of Israel’s Kings.(H)

1 Kings 15:27-31
International Standard Version
27 So Ahijah’s son Baasha from the household of Issachar conspired against him and killed Nadab at Gibbethon in Philistia while Nadab and all of Israel were attacking Gibbethon. 28 Baasha killed him during the third year of the reign of[a] King Asa of Judah and took Nadab’s[b] place as king.
29 As soon as he was established as king, he killed everyone in the household of Jeroboam. He left not even one single person alive. He destroyed them completely, just as the Lord had spoken through his servant Ahijah the Shilonite,[c] 30 because of the sins that Jeroboam had committed, and because he led Israel into sin, provoking the Lord God of Israel to become angry.
31 Now the rest of Nadab’s accomplishments, including everything he undertook, are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel, are they not?
