And also, by the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani the word of Yahweh came against Baasha and against his house because of all the evil that he did in the eyes of Yahweh, making him angry by the work of his hands in being like the house of Jeroboam, and also because he struck it down. Bible see other translations

”because he struck it down.” Baasha not only murdered Nadab the son of Jeroboam to become king (1 King 15:27), he went on to murder all the house of Jeroboam (1 Kings 15:29). But then, after killing all the dynasty of Jeroboam, Baasha went on to sin in the same way Jeroboam and Nadab sinned.
