Where Baalis appears in Scripture

Jeremiah 40

וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו הֲיָדֹעַ תֵּדַע כִּי בַּעֲלִיס׀ מֶלֶךְ בְּנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן שָׁלַח אֶת-יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה לְהַכֹּתְךָ נָפֶשׁ וְלֹא-הֶאֱמִין לָהֶם גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶּן-אֲחִיקָֽם׃
14
And said unto him, Dost thou certainly know that Baalis the king of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to slay thee? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not.
