22 But the people who followed Omri prevailed over the people who followed Tibni the son of Ginath. And Tibni died and Omri became king. 23 In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri became king over Israel and reigned twelve years; he reigned six years at (A)Tirzah. 24 And he bought the hill [a]Samaria from Shemer for two [b]talents of silver; and he built on the hill, and named the city which he built [c](B)Samaria, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill.
