11:016:024 And he bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of
           silver, and built on the hill, and called the name of the city
           which he built, after the name of Shemer, owner of the hill,
           Samaria.

11:016:025 But Omri wrought evil in the eyes of the lord, and did worse
           than all that were before him.

11:016:026 For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and
           in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin, to provoke the
           lord God of Israel to anger with their vanities.

11:016:027 Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did, and his might
           that he shewed, are they not written in the book of the
           chronicles of the kings of Israel?

11:016:028 So Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria:  and
           Ahab his son reigned in his stead.

11:016:029 And in the thirty and eighth year of Asa king of Judah began
           Ahab the son of Omri to reign over Israel:  and Ahab the son of
           Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years.

11:016:030 And Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the lord
           above all that were before him.

11:016:031 And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing for him
           to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took
           to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Zidonians,
           and went and served Baal, and worshipped him.

11:016:032 And he reared up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which
           he had built in Samaria.

11:016:033 And Ahab made a grove; and Ahab did more to provoke the lord
           God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel that were
           before him.

11:016:034 In his days did Hiel the Bethelite build Jericho:  he laid the
           foundation thereof in Abiram his firstborn, and set up the
           gates thereof in his youngest son Segub, according to the word
           of the lord, which he spake by Joshua the son of Nun.

11:017:001 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead,
           said unto Ahab, As the lord God of Israel liveth, before whom
           I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but
           according to my word.

11:017:002 And the word of the lord came unto him, saying,

11:017:003 Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by
           the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

11:017:004 And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I
           have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.

11:017:005 So he went and did according unto the word of the lord:  for he
           went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
