30 E reinou Acabe filho de Onri sobre Israel em Samaria vinte e dois anos. E Acabe filho de Onri fez o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR além de todos os que foram antes dele;

31 Porque lhe foi pouca coisa andar nos pecados de Jeroboão filho de Nebate, e tomou por mulher a Jezabel filha de Etbaal rei dos sidônios, e foi e serviu a Baal, e o adorou.

32 E fez altar a Baal, no templo de Baal que ele edificou em Samaria.
