Setelah rakyat yang berkemah itu mendengar orang mengatakan: "Zimri telah mengadakan persepakatan, dan iapun telah membunuh raja," maka pada hari itu juga, di tempat perkemahan, seluruh Israel menobatkan Omri, panglima tentara, menjadi raja atas Israel.
Maka kedengaranlah kepada orang banyak yang mengepung itu kata orang: Bahwa Zimri sudah bermufakat, bahkan, ia sudah membunuh baginda; maka sebab itu pada hari itu juga segenap orang Israel lalu merajakan Omri, panglima perangnya, di tengah-tengah balatentara itu.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the people that were encamped heard say, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also slain the king,.... Tidings came to the army of what he had done, which was displeasing to them:
wherefore all Israel made Omri, the captain of the host, king over Israel that day in the camp; that is, all Israel that were in the army proclaimed Omri, their general, king; just as the Roman army declared Vespasian, their general, emperor of Rome, and as several of the emperors were chosen.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
All Israel made Omri, the captain of the host, king - This passage of history recalls the favorite practice of the Roman armies under the Empire, which, when they heard of the assassination of an emperor at Rome, were accustomed to invest their own commander with the purple.
