1 Kings 16:16-21
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 16
16
And the people who were camped heard it being said, 'Zimri has conspired and has also struck and killed the king!' Therefore all Israel made Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.
17
Then Omri and all Israel with him went up from Gibbethon and besieged Tirzah.
18
When Zimri saw that the city was taken, he went into the citadel of the king’s house and burned the king’s house over himself with fire, and died,
19
because of his sins which he committed, doing evil in the sight of the
Lord
, walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he committed, misleading Israel into sin.
20
Now
as for
the rest of the acts of Zimri and his conspiracy which he carried out, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
21
Then the people of Israel were divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; the
other
half followed Omri.
King James Version
Chapter 16
16
And the people that were encamped heard say, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also slain the king: wherefore all Israel made Omri, the captain of the host, king over Israel that day in the camp.
17
And Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.
18
And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the palace of the king's house, and burnt the king's house over him with fire, and died,
19
For his sins which he sinned in doing evil in the sight of the
Lord
, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, to make Israel to sin.
20
Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason that he wrought, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
21
Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and half followed Omri.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 16
16
When these troops heard that Zimri had not only conspired but had also struck down the king, then all Israel made Omri, the army commander, king over Israel that very day in the camp.
17
Omri along with all Israel marched up from Gibbethon and besieged Tirzah.
18
When Zimri saw that the city was captured, he entered the citadel of the royal palace and burned it down over himself. He died
19
because of the sin he committed by doing what was evil in the
Lord
’s sight and by walking in the ways of Jeroboam and the sin he caused Israel to commit.
20
The rest of the events of Zimri’s reign, along with the conspiracy that he instigated, are written in the Historical Record of Israel’s Kings.
21
At that time the people of Israel were divided: half the people followed Tibni son of Ginath, to make him king, and half followed Omri.
New Living Translation
Chapter 16
16
When they heard that Zimri had committed treason and had assassinated the king, that very day they chose Omri, commander of the army, as the new king of Israel.
17
So Omri led the entire army of Israel up from Gibbethon to attack Tirzah, Israel’s capital.
18
When Zimri saw that the city had been taken, he went into the citadel of the palace and burned it down over himself and died in the flames.
19
For he, too, had done what was evil in the
Lord
’s sight. He followed the example of Jeroboam in all the sins he had committed and led Israel to commit.
20
The rest of the events in Zimri’s reign and his conspiracy are recorded in
The Book of the History of the Kings of Israel.
21
But now the people of Israel were split into two factions. Half the people tried to make Tibni son of Ginath their king, while the other half supported Omri.
English Standard Version
Chapter 16
16
and the troops who were encamped heard it said, "Zimri has conspired, and he has killed the king." Therefore all Israel made Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.
17
So Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.
18
And when Zimri saw that the city was taken, he went into the citadel of the king 's house and burned the king 's house over him with fire and died,
19
because of his sins that he committed, doing evil in the sight of the
Lord
, walking in the way of Jeroboam, and for his sin which he committed, making Israel to sin.
20
Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and the conspiracy that he made, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
21
Then the people of Israel were divided into two parts. Half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king, and half followed Omri.
New International Version
Chapter 16
16
When the Israelites in the camp heard that Zimri had plotted against the king and murdered him, they proclaimed Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel that very day there in the camp.
17
Then Omri and all the Israelites with him withdrew from Gibbethon and laid siege to Tirzah.
18
When Zimri saw that the city was taken, he went into the citadel of the royal palace and set the palace on fire around him. So he died,
19
because of the sins he had committed, doing evil in the eyes of the
Lord
and following the ways of Jeroboam and committing the same sin Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit.
20
As for the other events of Zimri’s reign, and the rebellion he carried out, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel?
21
Then the people of Israel were split into two factions; half supported Tibni son of Ginath for king, and the other half supported Omri.
New King James Version
Chapter 16
16
Now the people
who were
encamped heard it said, “Zimri has conspired and also has killed the king.” So all Israel made Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.
17
Then Omri and all Israel with him went up from Gibbethon, and they besieged Tirzah.
18
And it happened, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the citadel of the king’s house and burned the king’s house down upon himself with fire, and died,
19
because of the sins which he had committed in doing evil in the sight of the
Lord
, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he had committed to make Israel sin.
20
Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and the treason he committed,
are
they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
21
Then the people of Israel were divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king, and half followed Omri.
