1 Kings 16:1-3
Contemporary English Version

16 The Lord sent Jehu son of Hanani to say to Baasha:

2 Nobody knew who you were until I, the Lord, chose you[a] to be the leader of my people Israel. And now you're acting exactly like Jeroboam by causing the Israelites to sin. What you've done has made me so angry 3 that I will destroy you and your family, just as I did the family of Jeroboam.
