1 Kings 16

 1 Kings 16

1- Then the word of the Lord came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying:

2- Because I raised you up from the dust and made you ruler over my people Israel, and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have made my people Israel to sin by provoking me to anger with their sins,

3- Behold, I will cut off the descendants of Baasha and the descendants of his house, and will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

4- Whoever dies of Baasha in the city the dogs will eat, and whoever dies of him in the field the birds of the air will eat.

5- Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, what he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

6- And Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah: and Elah his son reigned in his stead.

7- And the word of the LORD came by the hand of Jehu the son of Hanani the prophet against Baasha and against his house, because of all the evil that he had done in the sight of the LORD, provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, to be like the house of Jeroboam; and for this he had smitten him.
