25 Nadab son of Jeroboam became king over Israel in the second year of Judah's King Asa; he reigned over Israel two years.
26
Nadab did what was evil in the Lord's sight and followed the example of his father and the sin he had caused Israel to commit.
27
Then Baasha son of Ahijah of the house of Issachar conspired against Nadab, and Baasha struck him down at Gibbethon of the Philistines while Nadab and all Israel were besieging Gibbethon.
28
In the third year of Judah's King Asa, Baasha killed Nadab and reigned in his place.
29
When Baasha became king, he struck down the entire house of Jeroboam. He did not leave Jeroboam anyone alive until he had destroyed his family according to the word of the Lord He had spoken through His servant Ahijah the Shilonite.[a]
30
This was because of Jeroboam's sins he had committed and had caused Israel to commit in the provocation he had provoked the Lord God of Israel with.
31
The rest of the events of Nadab's [reign], along with all his accomplishments, are written about in the Historical Record of Israel's Kings.
32
There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel throughout their reigns.
In this chapter we have a short history of the reign of Abijam, 1Ki 15:1-8 and of Asa, 1Ki 14:9-24, both kings of Judah; and of the reigns of Nadab the son of Jeroboam, and of Baasha, who destroyed his family, both kings of Israel, 1Ki 15:25-34.
