In his daysH3117 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH5927 up, and JehoiakimH3079 becameH1961 his servantH5650 threeH7969 years:H8141 then he turnedH7725 and rebelledH4775 against him.
2
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 against him bandsH1416 of the Chaldees,H3778 and bandsH1416 of the Syrians,H758 and bandsH1416 of the Moabites,H4124 and bandsH1416 of the childrenH1121 of Ammon,H5983 and sentH7971 them against JudahH3063 to destroyH6 it, according to the wordH1697 of the LORD,H3068 whichH834 he spokeH1696 by his servantsH5650 the prophets.H5030
3
SurelyH389 atH5921 the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 this on Judah,H3063 to removeH5493 them out of his sight,H6440 for the sinsH2403 of Manasseh,H4519 according to allH3605 that he did;H6213
4
And alsoH1571 for the innocentH5355 bloodH1818 that he shed:H8210 for he filledH4390 JerusalemH3389 with innocentH5355 blood;H1818 which the LORDH3068 wouldH14 not pardon.H5545
5
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of Jehoiakim,H3079 and allH3605 that he did,H6213 are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697 H3117 of the kingsH4428 of Judah?H3063
6
So JehoiakimH3079 sleptH7901 with his fathers:H1 and JehoiachinH3078 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.H8478
7
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 cameH3318 not againH3254 any moreH5750 out of his land:H776 for the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had takenH3947 from the riverH5158 of EgyptH4714 to the riverH5158 EuphratesH6578 allH3605 that pertained to the kingH4428 of Egypt.H4714
8
JehoiachinH3078 was eighteenH8083 H6240 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reign,H4427 and he reignedH4427 in JerusalemH3389 threeH7969 months.H2320 And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was Nehushta,H5179 the daughterH1323 of ElnathanH494 of Jerusalem.H3389
9
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORD,H3068 according to allH3605 that his fatherH1 had done.H6213
10
At that timeH6256 the servantsH5650 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH5927 up against Jerusalem,H3389 and the cityH5892 was besieged.H935 H4692
11
And NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935 againstH5921 the city,H5892 and his servantsH5650 did besiegeH6696 it.
12
And JehoiachinH3078 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 wentH3318 out to the kingH4428 of Babylon,H894 he, and his mother,H517 and his servants,H5650 and his princes,H8269 and his officers:H5631 and the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 tookH3947 him in the eighthH8083 yearH8141 of his reign.H4427
13
And he carriedH3318 out thereH8033 allH3605 the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORD,H3068 and the treasuresH214 of the king'sH4428 house,H1004 and cutH7112 in pieces allH3605 the vesselsH3627 of goldH2091 whichH834 SolomonH8010 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had madeH6213 in the templeH1964 of the LORD,H3068 as the LORDH3068 had said.H1696
14
And he carriedH1540 awayH1540 allH3605 Jerusalem,H3389 and allH3605 the princes,H8269 and allH3605 the mightyH1368 men of valor,H2428 even tenH6235 thousandH505 captives,H1540 and allH3605 the craftsmenH2796 and smiths:H4525 noneH3808 remained,H7604 saveH2108 the poorestH1803 sort of the peopleH5971 of the land.H776
15
And he carriedH1540 awayH1540 JehoiachinH3078 to Babylon,H894 and the king'sH4428 mother,H517 and the king'sH4428 wives,H802 and his officers,H5631 and the mightyH193 of the land,H776 those carriedH1980 he into captivityH1473 from JerusalemH3389 to Babylon.H894
16
And allH3605 the menH582 of might,H2428 even sevenH7651 thousand,H505 and craftsmenH2796 and smithsH4525 a thousand,H505 allH3605 that were strongH1368 and aptH6213 for war,H4421 even them the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 broughtH935 captiveH1473 to Babylon.H894
17
And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 made MattaniahH4983 his father'sH1730 brotherH251 kingH4427 in his stead,H8478 and changedH5437 his nameH8034 to Zedekiah.H6667
18
ZedekiahH6667 was twentyH6242 and oneH259 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reign,H4427 and he reignedH4427 elevenH259 H6240 yearsH8141 in Jerusalem.H3389 And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was Hamutal,H2537 the daughterH1323 of JeremiahH3414 of Libnah.H3841
19
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORD,H3068 according to allH3605 that JehoiakimH3079 had done.H6213
20
For throughH5921 the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 it cameH1961 to pass in JerusalemH3389 and Judah,H3063 untilH5704 he had castH7993 them out from his presence,H6440 that ZedekiahH6667 rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of Babylon.H894
