2 Kings 24:8-12

8Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, and he reigned [only] three months in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Nehushta daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.

9He did evil in the sight of the Lord, in accordance with everything that his father had done.

10At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon went up to Jerusalem, and the city came under siege.

11Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city while his servants were besieging it.

12Jehoiachin king of Judah surrendered to the king of Babylon, he and his mother and his servants and his captains and his [palace] officials. So the king of Babylon took him prisoner in the eighth year of his [own] reign.
