BAASHA, King of Israel

1 Kings 15:16-34

16. There was war between Asa and BAASHA king of Israel all their days.
17. BAASHA king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
18. Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that was left in the treasures of The LORD's house, and the treasures of the king's house, and delivered it into the hand of his servants. Then King Asa sent them to Ben Hadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying,
19. "There is a treaty between me and you, between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent to you a present of silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with BAASHA king of Israel, that he may depart from me."
20. Ben Hadad listened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel, and struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel Beth Maacah, and all Chinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
21. When BAASHA heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and lived in Tirzah.
22. Then king Asa made a proclamation to all Judah. No one was exempted. They carried away the stones of Ramah, and its timber, with which BAASHA had built; and king Asa used it to build Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
23. Now the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
24. Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in his father David's city; and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his place.
25. Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah; and he reigned over Israel two years.
26. He did that which was evil in The LORD's sight, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin with which he made Israel to sin.
27. BAASHA the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and BAASHA struck him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel were besieging Gibbethon.
28. Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah, BAASHA killed him, and reigned in his place.
29. As soon as he was king, he struck all the house of Jeroboam. He didn't leave to Jeroboam any who breathed, until he had destroyed him; according to the saying of The LORD, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite;
30. for the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and with which he made Israel to sin, because of his provocation with which he provoked The LORD, the God of Israel, to anger.
31. Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
32. There was war between Asa and BAASHA king of Israel all their days.
33. In the third year of Asa king of Judah, BAASHA the son of Ahijah began to reign over all Israel in Tirzah for twenty-four years.
34. He did that which was evil in The LORD's sight, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin with which he made Israel to sin.

1 Kings 16:1-7

1. The LORD's word came to Jehu the son of Hanani against BAASHA, saying,
2. "Because I exalted you out of the dust, and made you prince over my people Israel, and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam, and have made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins;
3. behold, I will utterly sweep away BAASHA and his house; and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
4. The dogs will eat BAASHA's descendants who die in the city; and he who dies of his in the field, the birds of the sky will eat."
5. Now the rest of the acts of BAASHA, and what he did, and his might, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
6. BAASHA slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his place.
7. Moreover The LORD's word came by the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani against BAASHA and against his house, both because of all the evil that he did in The LORD's sight, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he struck him.

1 Kings 21:22

I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of BAASHA the son of Ahijah for the provocation with which you have provoked me to anger, and have made Israel to sin."


2 Kings 9:9

I will make Ahab's house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of BAASHA the son of Ahijah.


2 Chronicles 16:1-6

1. In the thirty-sixth year of Asa's reign, BAASHA king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
2. Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of The LORD's house and of the king's house, and sent to Ben Hadad king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying,
3. "Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with BAASHA king of Israel, that he may depart from me."
4. Ben Hadad listened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they struck Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali.
5. When BAASHA heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and let his work cease.
6. Then Asa the king took all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Rama, and its timber, with which BAASHA had built; and he built Geba and Mizpah with them.
