1 Kings 16:22-24

Tree of Life Version

²² But the people following Omri prevailed against the people following Tibni son of Ginath. Tibni died, and Omri became king.

²³ In the thirty-first year of King Asa of Judah, Omri began to reign over Israel, and reigned 12 years, six years in Tirzah. ²⁴ Then he bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver, and built a city on the hill. He named the city that he built Samaria, based on the name Shemer, the owner of the hill.
