Insidiatus est autem ei Baasa filius Ahiæ de domo Issachar, et percussit eum in Gebbethon, quæ est urbs Philisthinorum : siquidem Nadab et omnis Israël obsidebant Gebbethon.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ περιεκάθισεν αὐτὸν Βαασὰ υἱὸς Ἀχειὰ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Βελαάν· ὁ υἱὸς Ἀχειὰ καὶ ἐχάραξεν αὐτὸν ἐν Γαβαθὼν τῇ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων· καὶ Ναβὰθ καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ περιεκάθητο ἐπὶ Γαβαθών.
