⁸ In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha became king over Israel at Tirzah, and reigned for two years. ⁹ And his servant ^(D)Zimri, commander of half his chariots, conspired against him. Now ^[b]Elah was in Tirzah drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, ^(E)who was in charge of the household in Tirzah.
