Zimri King of Israel

¹¹ As soon as Zimri became king, he killed all of Baasha’s family. He did not let any man of Baasha’s family or friends live. ¹² So Zimri destroyed all of Baasha’s family. This happened as the Lord had said it would. The Lord had spoken this against Baasha through the prophet Jehu.
