એમ થયું કે, નબાટના પુત્ર યરોબામના માર્ગે ચાલવું તેને માટે એક નજીવી બાબત હોય તેમ તેણે સિદોનીઓના રાજા એથ્બાલની દીકરી ઇઝબેલ સાથે લગ્ન કર્યા. તેણે બઆલ દેવની પૂજા કરીને તેને દંડવત પ્રણામ કર્યા.
हिन्दी1 राजाओं १६:३१
उसने तो नबात के पुत्र यारोबाम के पापों में चलना हलकी सी बात जानकर, सीदोनियों के राजा एतबाल की बेटी ईजेबेल से विवाह करके बाल देवता की उपासना की और उसको दण्डवत् किया। (प्रका. 2:20)
