1 Kings 16:31-33
Common English Bible
31 Ahab found it easy to walk in the sins of Jeroboam, Nebat’s son. He married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal, who was the king of the Sidonians. He served and worshipped Baal. 32 He made an altar for Baal in the Baal temple he had constructed in Samaria. 33 Ahab also made a sacred pole[a] and did more to anger the Lord, the God of Israel, than any of Israel’s kings who preceded him.
