← 1 Kings 16:23	1 Kings 16:24 (KJV)	1 Kings 16:25 →
In the thirty and first year of Asa king of Judah began Omri to reign over Israel, twelve years: six years reigned he in Tirzah.	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.	But Omri wrought evil in the eyes of the LORD, and did worse than all that [were] before him.
