In his days
Nebuchadnezzar
king
of Babylon
came
up, and Jehoiakim
became
his servant
for three
years;
then he turned
and rebelled
against him.
2
The LORD
sent
against him
bands
of Chaldeans,
bands
of Arameans,
bands
of Moabites,
and
bands
of Ammonites.
So He
sent
them against Judah
to destroy
it, according to the word
of the LORD
which
He had spoken
through
His servants
the prophets.
3
Surely
at the command
of the LORD
it came
upon Judah,
to remove
them from His sight
because of the sins
of Manasseh,
according to all
that he had done,
4
and also
for the innocent
blood
which
he shed,
for he filled
Jerusalem
with innocent
blood
;
and the LORD
would
not forgive.
5
Now the rest
of the acts
of Jehoiakim
and all
that he did,
are they not written
in the Book
of the Chronicles
of the Kings
of Judah?
6
So Jehoiakim
slept
with his fathers,
and Jehoiachin
his son
became king
in his place.
7
The king
of Egypt
did
not come
out of his land
again,
for the king
of Babylon
had taken
all
that belonged
to the king
of Egypt
from the brook
of Egypt
to the river
Euphrates.
8
Jehoiachin
was eighteen
years
old
when he became
king, and he reigned
three
months
in Jerusalem;
and his mother's
name
was Nehushta
the daughter
of Elnathan
of Jerusalem.
9
He did
evil
in the sight
of the LORD,
according to all
that his father
had done.
10
At that time
the servants
of Nebuchadnezzar
king
of Babylon
went
up to Jerusalem,
and the city
came
under siege.
11
And Nebuchadnezzar
the king
of Babylon
came
to the city,
while his servants
were besieging
it.
12
Jehoiachin
the king
of Judah
went
out to
the king
of Babylon
,
he and his mother
and his servants
and his captains
and his officials.
So
the king
of Babylon
took
him captive in the eighth
year
of his reign.
13
He carried
out from there
all
the treasures
of the house
of the LORD,
and
the treasures
of the
king
's
house,
and cut in pieces
all
the vessels
of gold
which
Solomon
king
of Israel
had made
in the temple
of the LORD,
just
as the LORD
had said.
14
Then he led away into exile
all
Jerusalem
and
all
the captains
and
all
the mighty men
of valor,
ten
thousand
captives,
and
all
the craftsmen
and the smiths.
None
remained
except
the poorest
people
of the land.
15
So
he led
Jehoiachin
away into exile
to Babylon;
also the king's
mother
and the king's
wives
and his officials
and the leading men
of the land,
he led
away into exile
from Jerusalem
to Babylon.
16
All
the men
of valor,
seven
thousand,
and the craftsmen
and the smiths,
one
thousand,
all
strong
and fit
for war,
and these the king
of Babylon
brought
into exile
to Babylon.
17
Then the
king
of Babylon
made
his uncle
Mattaniah
king
in his place,
and changed
his name
to Zedekiah.
18
Zedekiah
was twenty-one
years
old
when he became
king, and he reigned
eleven
years
in Jerusalem;
and his mother's
name
was Hamutal
the daughter
of Jeremiah
of Libnah.
19
He did
evil
in the sight
of the LORD,
according to all
that Jehoiakim
had done.
20
For through
the anger
of the LORD
this came
about in Jerusalem
and Judah
until
He cast
them out from His presence.
And Zedekiah
rebelled
against the king
of Babylon.
