NOVA VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Factus est autem sermo Domini ad Iehu filium Hanani contra Baasa dicens:	1 The word of Yahweh came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha:
2 “ Pro eo quod exaltavi te de pulvere et posui te ducem super populum meum Israel, tu autem ambulasti in via Ieroboam et peccare fecisti populum meum Israel, ut me irritares in peccatis eorum,	2 'I raised you from the dust and made you leader of my people Israel, but you have fol owed Jeroboam'sexample and led my people Israel into sins which provoke my anger.
3 ecce ego demetam posteriora Baasa et posteriora domus eius et faciam domum tuam sicut domum Ieroboam filii Nabat.	3 Now I shal sweep away Baasha and his House; I shal make your House like the House of Jeroboamson of Nebat.
4 Qui mortuus fuerit de Baasa in civitate, comedent eum canes; et, qui mortuus fuerit ex eo in agro, comedent eum volucres caeli”.	4 Those of Baasha's family who die in the city, the dogs wil eat; and those who die in the open country,the birds of the air wil eat.'
5 Reliqua autem gestorum Baasa et quaecumque fecit et fortitudo eius, nonne haec scripta sunt in libro annalium regum Israel?	5 The rest of the history of Baasha, his career, his valour, is this not recorded in the Book of the Annalsof the Kings of Israel?
6 Dormivit ergo Baasa cum patribus suis sepultusque est in Thersa; et regnavit Ela filius eius pro eo.	6 When Baasha fel asleep with his ancestors, he was buried in Tirzah; his son Elah succeeded him.
7 Sed et in manu Iehu filii Hanani prophetae verbum Domini factum est ad Baasa et ad domum eius propter omne malum, quod fecerat coram Domino ad irritandum eum in operibus manuum suarum, ut fieret sicut domus Ieroboam, eo quod percussisset eam.	7 Furthermore, the word of Yahweh was delivered through the prophet Jehu son of Hanani againstBaasha and his House, first because of the many ways in which he had displeased Yahweh, provoking him toanger by his actions and becoming like the House of Jeroboam; secondly because he had destroyed that House.

9 Et rebellavit contra eum servus suus Zamri dux mediae partis curruum. Erat autem Ela in Thersa bibens et temulentus in domo Arsa praefecti domus in Thersa;	9 Zimri, one of his officers, captain of half his chariotry, plotted against him. While he was at Tirzah,drinking himself senseless in the house of Arza who was master of the palace in Tirzah,
10 irruens ergo Zamri percussit et occidit eum anno vicesimo septimo Asa regis Iudae et regnavit pro eo.	10 Zimri came in, struck him down and kil ed him in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, andsucceeded him.
11 Cumque regnasset et sedisset super solium eius, percussit omnem domum Baasa et non dereliquit ex eo quidquid masculini sexus et propinquos et amicos eius.	11 On his accession, as soon as he was seated on the throne, he butchered Baasha's entire family, notleaving him one manjack of them alive, neither relative nor friend.
12 Delevitque Zamri omnem domum Baasa iuxta verbum Domini, quod locutus fuerat ad Baasa in manu Iehu prophetae,	12 Zimri destroyed the whole House of Baasha, in accordance with the word which Yahweh had spokenagainst Baasha through the prophet Jehu,
13 propter universa peccata Baasa et peccata Ela filii eius, qui peccaverunt et peccare fecerunt Israel provocantes Dominum, Deum Israel, in vanitatibus suis.	13 because of all the sins of Baasha and his son Elah into which they had led Israel, provoking the angerof Yahweh, God of Israel, with their worthless idols.
14 Reliqua autem gestorum Ela et omnia, quae fecit, nonne haec scripta sunt in libro annalium regum Israel?	14 The history of Elah, his entire career, is this not recorded in the Book of the Annals of the Kings ofIsrael?

Thepeople were then encamped in front of Gibbethon, a Philistine town.
16 Cumque audisset rebellasse Zamri et occidisse regem, fecit sibi regem omnis Israel Amri, qui erat princeps militiae super Israel in die illa in castris.	16 When news reached the camp of how Zimri had not only plotted against but actual y killed the king, alIsrael proclaimed the army commander Omri as king of Israel in the camp that very day.
17 Ascendit ergo Amri et omnis Israel cum eo de Gebbethon, et obsidebant Thersa;	17 Omri, and all Israel with him, raised the siege of Gibbethon and laid siege to Tirzah.

21 Tunc divisus est populus Israel in duas partes: media pars populi sequebatur Thebni filium Gineth, ut constitueret eum regem, et media pars Amri.	21 The people of Israel then split into two factions: one half fol owing Tibni son of Ginath to make himking, the other half fol owing Omri.
22 Praevaluit autem populus, qui erat cum Amri, populo, qui sequebatur Thebni filium Gineth; mortuusque est Thebni, et regnavit Amri.	22 But the faction of Omri proved stronger than that of Tibni son of Ginath; thus Tibni lost his life andOmri became king.

25 Fecit autem Amri malum in conspectu Domini et operatus est nequiter super omnes, qui fuerunt ante eum;	25 Omri did what is displeasing to Yahweh, and was worse than al his predecessors.
26 ambulavitque in omni via Ieroboam filii Nabat et in peccato eius, quo peccare fecerat Israel, ut irritaret Dominum, Deum Israel, in vanitatibus suis.	26 In every way he copied the example of Jeroboam son of Nebat and the sins into which he had ledIsrael, provoking the anger of Yahweh, God of Israel, with their worthless idols.

31 Nec suffecit ei, ut ambularet in peccatis Ieroboam filii Nabat; insuper duxit uxorem Iezabel filiam Ethbaal regis Sidoniorum et abiit et servivit Baal et adoravit eum.	31 The least that he did was to fol ow the sinful example of Jeroboam son of Nebat: he married Jezebeldaughter of Ethbaal, king of the Sidonians, and then proceeded to serve Baal and worship him.

34 In diebus eius aedificavit Hiel de Bethel Iericho; in Abiram primitivo suo fundavit eam et in Segub novissimo suo posuit portas eius, iuxta verbum Domini, quod locutus fuerat in manu Iosue filii Nun.	34 It was in his time that Hiel of Bethel rebuilt Jericho.
