1 Kings 16:31 in Context — 1 Kings 16
29 Achab, fils d’Omri, régna sur Israël, la trente-huitième année d’Asa, roi de Juda. Achab, fils d’Omri, régna vingt-deux ans sur Israël à Samarie.
30 Achab, fils d’Omri, fit ce qui est mal aux yeux de l’Éternel, plus que tous ceux qui avaient été avant lui.
31 Et comme si c’eût été pour lui peu de chose de se livrer aux péchés de Jéroboam, fils de Nebath, il prit pour femme Jézabel, fille d’Ethbaal, roi des Sidoniens, et il alla servir Baal et se prosterner devant lui.
32 Il éleva un autel à Baal dans la maison de Baal qu’il bâtit à Samarie,
33 et il fit une idole d’Astarté. Achab fit plus encore que tous les rois d’Israël qui avaient été avant lui, pour irriter l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël.
