30 This happened because King Jeroboam had committed many sins and had caused the Israelites to sin. This made the Lord, the God of Israel, very angry.
31 The other things that Nadab did are written in the book, The History of the Kings of Israel.
32 All during the time that Baasha ruled over Israel, he was fighting wars against King Asa of Judah.
33 Ahijah’s son Baasha became king of Israel during the third year that Asa ruled over Judah. Baasha ruled in Tirzah for 24 years,
34 but he did what the Lord said was wrong. He did the same sins that Jeroboam had done that caused the Israelites to sin.
