1 Kings 16:29-33

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁹ Now Ahab the son of Omri became king over Israel in the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years. ³⁰ Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the Lord ^(A)more than all who were before him.

³¹ It came about, as though it had been a trivial thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that ^(B)he married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the ^(C)Sidonians, and went to serve Baal and worshiped him. ³² So he erected an altar for Baal in ^(D)the house of Baal which he built in Samaria. ³³ Ahab also made ^(E)the ^[a]Asherah. Thus ^(F)Ahab did more to provoke the Lord God of Israel than all the kings of Israel who were before him.
