And it came to pass, when Ba´asha heard thereof, that he left off building of Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.
And Jerobo´am's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah: and when she came to the threshold of the door, the child died;
Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.

And Ba´asha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not suffer any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.

In the thirty and first year of Asa king of Judah began Omri to reign over Israel, twelve years: six years reigned he in Tirzah.
