    9Then his servant Zimri, commander of half the chariots, conspired against him. Elah was in Tirzah at the home of Arza, who was over the household, drinking himself drunk.

    10Zimri came in, struck him down, and killed him in the twenty-seventh year of Asa, king of Judah, and reigned in his place.

    11As soon as Zimri began to reign and sat on his throne, he struck down the entire household of Baasha. He did not leave a single male, whether relative or friend.

    12So Zimri destroyed all the house of Baasha, in accordance with the word of the Lord spoken against Baasha through the prophet Jehu.
