16 In time the people that were encamped heard it said: “Zimʹri has conspired and also struck down the king.” So all Israel made Omʹri,+ the chief of the army, king over Israel on that day in the camp.

23 In the thirty-first year of Aʹsa the king of Judah, Omʹri became king* over Israel for twelve years. In Tirʹzah he reigned six years.

27 As for the rest of the affairs of Omʹri, what he did and his mightiness with which he acted, are they not written in the book+ of the affairs of the days of the kings of Israel?

2 Twenty-two* years old was A·ha·ziʹah when he began to reign,+ and for one year he reigned in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Ath·a·liʹah+ the granddaughter* of Omʹri.+
