25 In the second year of Asa’s reign over Yehudah (Judah), Yarov’am’s (Jeroboam’s) son Nadav became king of Yisrael (Israel) where he reigned for two years. 26 He did what Yahweh had said was evil, following his father’s behaviour and his sin that in turn, caused Yisrael to sin.

27 A man named Baesha (from the Yisakar (Issachar) tribe) plotted against King Nadav and killed him at the Pelishti city of Gibton when Nadav and all Yisrael were besieging the city. 28 It was the third year of King Asa’s reign in Yehudah when Baesha killed King Nadav, then Baesha took over as king of Yisrael. 29 As soon as he took over, he had Yarov’am’s entire family executed—not leaving a single one of them alive. This fulfilled what Yahweh had said through his servant Ahiyah the Shiloni,[ref] 30 because Yarov’am’s own sins, as well as his causing Yisrael to sin, had provoked Yahweh into getting angry.

31 Everything else that Nadav did is written in the book of the events of the kings of Yisrael. 32 King Asa and King Baesha of Yisrael were in a continual state of war during their reigns.
