2 Kings 24

1In his days^H3117 Nebuchadnezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon^H894 came up^H5927, and Jehoiakim^H3079 became his servant^H5650 three^H7969 years^H8141: then he turned^H7725 and rebelled^H4775 against him. 2And Jehovah^H3068 sent^H7971 against him bands^H1416 of the Chaldeans^H3778, and bands^H1416 of the Syrians^H758, and bands^H1416 of the Moabites^H4124, and bands^H1416 of the children^H1121 of Ammon^H5983, and sent^H7971 them against Judah^H3063 to destroy^H6 it, according to the word^H1697 of Jehovah^H3068, which he spake^H1696 by^H3027 his servants^H5650 the prophets^H5030. 3Surely at the commandment^H6310 of Jehovah^H3068 came this upon Judah^H3063, to remove^H5493 them out of his sight^H6440, for the sins^H2403 of Manasseh^H4519, according to all that he did^H6213, 4and also for the innocent^H5355 blood^H1818 that he shed^H8210; for he filled^H4390 Jerusalem^H3389 with innocent^H5355 blood^H1818: and Jehovah^H3068 would^H14 not pardon^H5545. 5Now the rest^H3499 of the acts^H1697 of Jehoiakim^H3079, and all that he did^H6213, are they not written^H3789 in the book^H5612 of the chronicles^H1697 of the kings^H4428 of Judah^H3063? 6So Jehoiakim^H3079 slept^H7901 with his fathers^H1; and Jehoiachin^H3078 his son^H1121 reigned^H4427 in his stead. 7And the king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714 came^H3318 not again^H3254 any more out of his land^H776; for the king^H4428 of Babylon^H894 had taken^H3947, from the brook^H5158 of Egypt^H4714 unto the river^H5104 Euphrates^H6578, all that pertained to the king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714. 8Jehoiachin^H3078 was eighteen^H8083 years^H8141 old^H1121 when he began to reign^H4427; and he reigned^H4427 in Jerusalem^H3389 three^H7969 months^H2320: and his mother's^H517 name^H8034 was Nehushta^H5179 the daughter^H1323 of Elnathan^H494 of Jerusalem^H3389. 9And he did^H6213 that which was evil^H7451 in the sight^H5869 of Jehovah^H3068, according to all that his father^H1 had done^H6213. 10At that time^H6256 the servants^H5650 of Nebuchadnezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon^H894 came up^H5927 to Jerusalem^H3389, and the city^H5892 was besieged^H935. 11And Nebuchadnezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon^H894 came^H935 unto the city^H5892, while his servants^H5650 were besieging^H6696 it; 12and Jehoiachin^H3078 the king^H4428 of Judah^H3063 went out^H3318 to the king^H4428 of Babylon^H894, he, and his mother^H517, and his servants^H5650, and his princes^H8269, and his officers^H5631: and the king^H4428 of Babylon^H894 took^H3947 him in the eighth^H8083 year^H8141 of his reign^H4427. 13And he carried out^H3318 thence all the treasures^H214 of the house^H1004 of Jehovah^H3068, and the treasures^H214 of the king's^H4428 house^H1004, and cut in pieces^H7112 all the vessels^H3627 of gold^H2091, which Solomon^H8010 king^H4428 of Israel^H3478 had made^H6213 in the temple^H1964 of Jehovah^H3068, as Jehovah^H3068 had said^H1696. 14And he carried away^H1540 all Jerusalem^H3389, and all the princes^H8269, and all the mighty men^H1368 of valor^H2428, even ten^H6235 thousand^H505 captives^H1540, and all the craftsmen^H2796 and the smiths^H4525; none remained^H7604, save^H2108 the poorest sort^H1803 of the people^H5971 of the land^H776. 15And he carried away^H1540 Jehoiachin^H3078 to Babylon^H894; and the king's^H4428 mother^H517, and the king's^H4428 wives^H802, and his officers^H5631, and the chief^H352 men of the land^H776, carried^H3212 he into captivity^H1473 from Jerusalem^H3389 to Babylon^H894. 16And all the men^H582 of might^H2428, even seven^H7651 thousand^H505, and the craftsmen^H2796 and the smiths^H4525 a thousand^H505, all of them strong^H1368 and apt^H6213 for war^H4421, even them the king^H4428 of Babylon^H894 brought^H935 captive^H1473 to Babylon^H894. 17And the king^H4428 of Babylon^H894 made Mattaniah^H4983, Jehoiachin's father's brother^H1730, king^H4427 is his stead, and changed^H5437 his name^H8034 to Zedekiah^H6667. 18Zedekiah^H6667 was twenty^H6242 and one^H259 years^H8141 old^H1121 when he began to reign^H4427; and he reigned^H4427 eleven^H259 years^H8141 in Jerusalem^H3389: and his mother's^H517 name^H8034 was Hamutal^H2537 the daughter^H1323 of Jeremiah^H3414 of Libnah^H3841. 19And he did^H6213 that which was evil^H7451 in the sight^H5869 of Jehovah^H3068, according to all that Jehoiakim^H3079 had done^H6213. 20For through the anger^H639 of Jehovah^H3068 did it come to pass in Jerusalem^H3389 and Judah^H3063, until he had cast them out^H7993 from his presence^H6440. And Zedekiah^H6667 rebelled^H4775 against the king^H4428 of Babylon^H894.
