1 # In his days <03117> Nebuchadnezzar <05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894> came up <05927> (8804) , and Jehoiakim <03079> became his servant <05650> three <07969> years <08141>: then he turned <07725> (8799) and rebelled <04775> (8799) against him.
2 And the LORD <03068> sent <07971> (8762) against him bands <01416> of the Chaldees <03778>, and bands <01416> of the Syrians <0758>, and bands <01416> of the Moabites <04124>, and bands <01416> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> , and sent <07971> (8762) them against Judah <03063> to destroy <06> (8687) it, according to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) by <03027> his servants <05650> the prophets <05030>.
3 Surely at the commandment <06310> of the LORD <03068> came this upon Judah <03063>, to remove <05493> (8687) them out of his sight <06440>, for the sins <02403> of Manasseh <04519>, according to all that he did <06213> (8804);
4 And also for the innocent <05355> blood <01818> that he shed <08210> (8804): for he filled <04390> (8762) Jerusalem <03389> with innocent <05355> blood <01818>; which the LORD <03068> would <014> (8804) not pardon <05545> (8800).
5 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Jehoiakim <03079>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063> ?
6 So Jehoiakim <03079> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>: and Jehoiachin <03078> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
7 And the king <04428> of Egypt <04714> came <03318> (8800) not again <03254> (8689) any more out of his land <0776>: for the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> had taken <03947> (8804) from the river <05158> of Egypt <04714> unto the river <05104> Euphrates <06578> all that pertained to the king <04428> of Egypt <04714>.
8 # Jehoiachin <03078> was eighteen <08083> <06240> years <08141> old <01121> when he began to reign <04427> (8800), and he reigned <04427> (8804) in Jerusalem <03389> three <07969> months <02320>. And his mother's <0517> name <08034> was Nehushta <05179>, the daughter <01323> of Elnathan <0494> of Jerusalem <03389>.
9 And he did <06213> (8799) that which was evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, according to all that his father <01> had done <06213> (8804).
10 At that time <06256> the servants <05650> of Nebuchadnezzar <05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894> came up <05927> (8804) against Jerusalem <03389>, and the city <05892> was besieged <0935> (8799) <04692>.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar <05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894> came <0935> (8799) against the city <05892> , and his servants <05650> did besiege <06696> (8802) it.
12 And Jehoiachin <03078> the king <04428> of Judah <03063> went out <03318> (8799) to the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, he, and his mother <0517>, and his servants <05650>, and his princes <08269>, and his officers <05631>: and the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> took <03947> (8799) him in the eighth <08083> year <08141> of his reign <04427> (8800).
13 And he carried out <03318> (8686) thence all the treasures <0214> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and the treasures <0214> of the king's <04428> house <01004>, and cut in pieces <07112> (8762) all the vessels <03627> of gold <02091> which Solomon <08010> king <04428> of Israel <03478> had made <06213> (8804) in the temple <01964> of the LORD <03068>, as the LORD <03068> had said <01696> (8765).
14 And he carried away <01540> (8689) all Jerusalem <03389>, and all the princes <08269>, and all the mighty men <01368> of valour <02428>, even ten <06235> thousand <0505> captives <01540> (8802), and all the craftsmen <02796> and smiths <04525>: none remained <07604> (8738), save <02108> the poorest sort <01803> of the people <05971> of the land <0776>.
15 And he carried away <01540> (8686) Jehoiachin <03078> to Babylon <0894>, and the king's <04428> mother <0517>, and the king's <04428> wives <0802>, and his officers <05631>, and the mighty <0352> (8675) <0193> of the land <0776>, those carried <03212> (8689) he into captivity <01473> from Jerusalem <03389> to Babylon <0894>.
16 And all the men <0582> of might <02428>, even seven <07651> thousand <0505>, and craftsmen <02796> and smiths <04525> a thousand <0505>, all that were strong <01368> and apt <06213> (8802) for war <04421>, even them the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> brought <0935> (8686) captive <01473> to Babylon <0894>.
17 And the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> made Mattaniah <04983> his father's brother <01730> king <04427> (8686) in his stead, and changed <05437> (8686) his name <08034> to Zedekiah <06667>.
18 Zedekiah <06667> was twenty <06242> and one <0259> years <08141> old <01121> when he began to reign <04427> (8800), and he reigned <04427> (8804) eleven <0259> <06240> years <08141> in Jerusalem <03389> . And his mother's <0517> name <08034> was Hamutal <02537>, the daughter <01323> of Jeremiah <03414> of Libnah <03841> .
19 And he did <06213> (8799) that which was evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, according to all that Jehoiakim <03079> had done <06213> (8804).
20 For through the anger <0639> of the LORD <03068> it came to pass in Jerusalem <03389> and Judah <03063>, until he had cast them out <07993> (8689) from his presence <06440>, that Zedekiah <06667> rebelled <04775> (8799) against the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>.
