And Baasha
<01201>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

went up
<05927> (8799)

against Judah
<03063>_,

and built
<01129> (8799)

Ramah
<07414>_,

that he might not suffer
<05414> (8800)

any to go out
<03318> (8802)

or come in
<0935> (8802)

to Asa
<0609>

<0609>

took
<03947> (8799)

all the silver
<03701>

and the gold
<02091>

[that were] left
<03498> (8737)

in the treasures
<0214>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and the treasures
<0214>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

and delivered
<05414> (8799)

them into the hand
<03027>

of his servants
<05650>_:

and king
<04428>

Asa
<0609>

sent
<07971> (8799)

them to Benhadad
<01130>_,

the son
<01121>

<02886>_,

the son
<01121>

15:19

[There is] a league
<01285>

between me and thee, [and] between my father
<01>

and thy father
<01>_:

behold, I have sent
<07971> (8804)

unto thee a present
<07810>

of silver
<03701>

and gold
<02091>_;

come
<03212> (8798)

and break
<06565> (8685)

thy league
<01285>

with Baasha
<01201>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

that he may depart
<05927> (8799)

from me. {depart: Heb. go up}

So Benhadad
<01130>

<08085> (8799)

<07971> (8799)

the captains
<08269>

of the hosts
<02428>

which he had against the cities
<05892>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

Ijon
<05859>_,

<08085> (8800)

[thereof], that he left off
<02308> (8799)

building
<01129> (8800)

of Ramah
<07414>_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in Tirzah
<08656>_.

<04428>

Asa
<0609>

made a proclamation
<08085> (8689)

throughout all Judah
<03063>_;

<01129> (8799)

with them Geba
<01387>

of Benjamin

reigned
<04427> (8804)

<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Maachah
<04601>_,

16:1

Then the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came to Jehu
<03058>

the son
<01121>

of Hanani
<02607>

against Baasha
<01201>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

16:2

Forasmuch as I exalted
<07311> (8689)

thee out of the dust
<06083>_,

and made
<05414> (8799)

thee prince
<05057>

over my people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_;

and thou hast walked
<03212> (8799)

in the way
<01870>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_,

and hast made my people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8686)_,

to provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)

with their sins
<02403>_;

16:3

Behold, I will take away
<01197> (8686)

the posterity
<0310>

of Baasha
<01201>_,

and the posterity
<0310>

of his house
<01004>_;

and will make
<05414> (8804)

thy house
<01004>

like the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>_.

16:4

Him that dieth
<04191> (8801)

of Baasha
<01201>

in the city
<05892>

shall the dogs
<03611>

eat
<0398> (8799)_;

and him that dieth
<04191> (8801)

of his in the fields
<07704>

shall the fowls
<05775>

of the air
<08064>

eat
<0398> (8799)_.

16:5

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Baasha
<01201>_,

and what he did
<06213> (8804)_,

and his might
<01369>_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_?

16:6

So Baasha
<01201>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

in Tirzah
<08656>_:

and Elah
<0425>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

16:7

And also by the hand
<03027>

of the prophet
<05030>

Jehu
<03058>

the son
<01121>

of Hanani
<02607>

came the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

against Baasha
<01201>_,

and against his house
<01004>_,

even for all the evil
<07451>

that he did
<06213> (8804)

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

in provoking him to anger
<03707> (8687)

with the work
<04639>

of his hands
<03027>_,

in being like the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_;

and because he killed
<05221> (8689)

him.

In the twenty
<06242> <08141>

and sixth
<08337>

<08141>

of Asa
<0609>

<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

began Elah
<0425>

the son
<01121>

of Baasha
<01201>

to reign
<04427> (8804)

over Israel
<03478>

in Tirzah
<08656>_,

two years
<08141>_.

And his servant
<05650>

Zimri
<02174>_,

captain
<08269>

of half
<04276>

[his] chariots
<07393>_,

conspired
<07194> (8799)

against him, as he was in Tirzah
<08656>_,

drinking
<08354> (8802)

himself drunk
<07910>

in the house
<01004>

of Arza
<0777>

steward of [his] house
<01004>

in Tirzah
<08656>_.

<02174>

went in
<0935> (8799)

and smote
<05221> (8686)

him, in the twenty
<06242>

and seventh
<07651>

year
<08141>

of Asa
<0609>

king
<04428>

of Judah
