1 Kings 16:26-28

New International Reader's Version

²⁶ He lived the way Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had lived. He committed the same sin Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit. Israel made the Lord very angry. They did it by worshiping worthless statues of gods. The Lord is the God of Israel.

²⁷ The other events of Omri’s rule are written down. Everything he did and the things he accomplished are written in the official records of the kings of Israel. ²⁸ Omri joined the members of his family who had already died. He was buried in Samaria. Omri’s son Ahab became the next king after him.
