1 Kings 16:25-33

[25] But Omri  wrought  evil  in the eyes  of the LORD,  and did worse  than all that were before  [26] in all the way  of Jeroboam  the son  of Nebat,  and in his sin  wherewith he made Israel  to sin,  to provoke the LORD  God  of Israel  to anger  with their vanities.  [27] Now the rest  of the acts  of Omri  which he did,  and his might  that he shewed,  are they not written  in the book  of the chronicles  of the kings  of Israel?  [28] So Omri  slept  with his fathers,  and was buried  in Samaria:  and Ahab  his son  reigned  in his stead. [29] And in the thirty  and eighth  year  of Asa  king  of Judah  began Ahab  the son  of Omri  to reign  over Israel:  and Ahab  the son  of Omri  reigned  over Israel  in Samaria  twenty  and two  years.  [30] And Ahab  the son  of Omri  did  evil  in the sight  of the LORD  above all that were before  [31] And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing  in the sins  of Jeroboam  the son  of Nebat,  that he took  to wife  Jezebel  the daughter  of Ethbaal  king  of the Zidonians,  and served  Baal,  and worshipped  him. [32] And he reared up  an altar  for Baal  in the house  of Baal,  which he had built  in Samaria.  [33] And Ahab  made  a grove;  and Ahab  did  more  to provoke the LORD  God  of Israel  to anger  than all the kings  of Israel  that were before
