25 (A)Omri did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, and did more evil (B)than all who were before him. 26 For (C)he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in the sins that he made Israel to sin, (D)provoking the Lord, the God of Israel, to anger by their idols. 27 Now the rest of the acts of Omri that he did, and the might that he showed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel? 28 And Omri slept with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and Ahab his son reigned in his place.
Ahab Reigns in Israel
29 In the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, Ahab the son of Omri began to reign over Israel, and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years. 30 And Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the Lord, (E)more than all who were before him. 31 And as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, (F)he took for his wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the (G)Sidonians, (H)and went and served Baal and worshiped him. 32 He erected an altar for Baal in (I)the house of Baal, which he built in Samaria. 33 And Ahab made an (J)Asherah. Ahab did more to provoke the Lord, the God of Israel, to anger (K)than all the kings of Israel who were before him.
