2
Forasmuch as I lifted thee up from the earth, and made thee ruler over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast caused my people Israel to sin, to provoke me with their vanities;
3
Behold, I raise up after Baasa, and after his house; and I will make thy house as the house of Jeroboam son of Nabat.
4
Him that dies of Baasa in the city the dogs shall devour, and him that dies of his in the field the birds of the sky shall devour.
5
Now the rest of the history of Baasa, and all that he did, and his mighty acts, behold, are not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
6
And Baasa slept with his fathers, and they bury him in Thersa; and Ela his son reigns in his stead.
