Melachim Alef 16:5 In-Context

3 Hineni, I will sweep away after Ba’asha, and after his Bais; and I will make thy Bais like the Bais Yarov‘am Ben Nevat.
4 Him that dieth of Ba’asha in the Ir shall the kelavim eat; and him that dieth of his in the sadeh (country) shall the oph HaShomayim eat.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Ba’asha, and what he did, and his gevurah, are they not written in the Sefer Divrei HaYamim L’Malkhei Yisroel?
6 So Ba’asha slept with his avot, and was buried in Tirtzah: and Elah Bno reigned as Melech in his place.
7 And also by the yad HaNavi Yehu Ben Chanani came the Devar Hashem against Ba’asha, and against his Bais, even for all ra’ah that he did in the eyes of Hashem, in provoking Him to anger by the ma’aseh (work) of his hands, in becoming like the Bais Yarov‘am; and because he struck it.
