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.
25 (C)And Omri did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and (D)acted more wickedly than all who were before him.
