And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, like as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife: and he wrought that which was evil in the eyes of the LORD.

Ambulavitque in viis regum Israël, sicut egerat domus Achab : filia quippe Achab erat uxor ejus : et fecit malum in conspectu Domini.

Vulgate

καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ βασιλέως Ἰσραήλ, ὡς ἐποίησεν οἶκος Ἀχαάβ, ὅτι θυγάτηρ Ἀχαὰβ ἦν αὐτοῦ γυνή, καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐναντίον Κυρίου.

LXX

And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah.
