3 Kings 16:7
And when the word of the Lord came in the hand of Jehu the son of Hanani the prophet, against Baasa, and against his house, and against all the evil that he had done before the Lord, to provoke him to anger by the works of his hands, to become as the house of Jeroboam: for this cause he slew him, that is to say, Jehu the son of Hanani, the prophet.

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Cum autem in manu Jehu filii Hanani prophetæ verbum Domini factum esset contra Baasa, et contra domum ejus, et contra omne malum quod fecerat coram Domino, ad irritandum eum in operibus manuum suarum, ut fieret sicut domus Jeroboam : ob hanc causam occidit eum, hoc est, Jehu filium Hanani prophetam.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- καὶ ἐν χειρὶ Εἰοὺ Ἁνανεὶ ἐλάλησεν Κύριος ἐπὶ Βαασὰ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ πᾶσαν τὴν κακίαν ἣν ἐποίησεν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου τοῦ παροργίσαι αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ εἶναι κατὰ τὸν οἶκον Ἰεροβοὰμ καὶ ὑπὲρ τοῦ πατάξαι αὐτόν.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- וְגַ֡ם בְּיַד יֵה֨וּא בֶן חֲנָ֜נִי הַנָּבִ֗יא דְּבַר יְהוָ֡ה הָיָה֩ אֶל בַּעְשָׁ֨א וְאֶל בֵּית֜וֹ וְעַ֥ל כָּל הָרָעָ֣ה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂ֣ה בְּעֵינֵ֣י יְהוָ֗ה לְהַכְעִיסוֹ֙ בְּמַעֲשֵׂ֣ה יָדָ֔יו לִהְי֖וֹת כְּבֵ֣ית יָרָבְעָ֑ם וְעַ֥ל אֲשֶׁר הִכָּ֖ה אֹתֽוֹ
Haydock's commentary
The evil, to punish it. (Menochius)
He, God, slew him, Baasa, (Calmet) or "because the latter slew" Nadab, &c. (Grotius)
God punished his usurpation and murders. (Calmet)
That is, &c., is not found in Hebrew, Chaldean, Septuagint, nor in some Latin copies. (Estius)
Hence Jehu might survive to admonish Josaphat, ver. 1. (Calmet)
