This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
1Ki 16:23-28:
23 Omri became king in the thirty-first years of King Asa’s reign over Yehudah, and reigned over Israel for twelve years—six of them from Tirtsah. 24 He bought a hill from a man named Shemer for seventy kilograms of silver, then built his capital city on it. He named it Shomron (Samaria) in honour of Shemer who’d owned the hill.
25 Omri did what Yahweh had said was evil—in fact he did more evil things than all those kings who preceded him. 26 He followed (Nabat’s son) Yarobam’s behaviour including causing Israel to sin by provoking Israel’s God Yahweh to get angry with their idols. 27 Everything else that Omri did, including his military victories, is written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel. 28 Then Omri died and was buried in Shomron, and his son Ahav (Ahab) replaced him as king.
1Ki 16:29-34:
16:29 Ahav’s reign over Israel
29 Omri’s son Ahav became king of Israel in the thirty-eighth year of King Ahab’s reign over Yehudah, and he reigned Israel from Shomrom for twenty-two years. 30 Ahav did what Yahweh had said was evil—in fact he did more evil things than all those kings who preceded him. 31 As if following Yarobam’s behaviour wasn’t bad enough, he married Izevel (Jezebel), the daughter of the Sidonian King Etbaal, then went and served Baal and bowed down to him. 32 He built a temple for Baal in Shomrom and placed an altar in it. 33 Ahav also made an Asherah pole and went on to provoke Israel’s God Yahweh to get angry, more than any of the previous kings of Israel had done. 34 During his reign, Hiel from Bethel rebuilt Yeriko city. As they laid the foundations, his eldest son Aviram died, and when they hung the city gates, his youngest son Seguv died, just as Yahweh had told (Nun’s son) Yehoshua (Joshua).[ref]
21:25-26:
25 Surely there was never anyone else as evil as Ahav who sold his soul by doing what Yahweh was said was wrong—albeit often incited by his wife Izevel. 26 He also behaved disgustingly by worshipping idols like the Amorites had done before Yahweh removed them from the land as the Israelis entered.
