2 Kings 24:8-16
8JehoiachinH3078 was eighteenH8083H6240 years oldH1121H8141 when he became kingH4427, and he reignedH4427 in JerusalemH3389 threeH7969 monthsH2320. His mother’sH517 nameH8034 was NehushtaH5179 daughterH1323 of ElnathanH494; she was from JerusalemH3389. 9And he didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, just asH3605 his fatherH1 had doneH6213.
10At thatH1931 timeH6256 the servantsH5650 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 marched upH5927 to JerusalemH3389, and the cityH5892 cameH935 under siegeH4692. 11And NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935 toH5921 the cityH5892 while his servantsH5650 were besieging itH6696H5921. 12JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, his motherH517, his servantsH5650, his commandersH8269, and his officialsH5631 all surrenderedH3318 toH5921 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894H1931.
So in the eighthH8083 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 took him captiveH3947. 13AsH834 the LORDH3068 had declaredH1696, Nebuchadnezzar also carried offH3318H8033 allH3605 the treasuresH214 from the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 and the royalH4428 palaceH1004, and he cut into piecesH7112 allH3605 the goldH2091 articlesH3627 thatH834 SolomonH8010 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had madeH6213 in the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068. 14He carried into exileH1540 allH3605 JerusalemH3389—allH3605 the commandersH8269 andH853 mighty menH1368 of valorH2428, allH3605 the craftsmenH2796 and metalsmithsH4525—tenH6235 thousandH505 captivesH1473 in all. OnlyH2108 the poorestH1803 peopleH5971 of the landH776 remainedH7604.
15Nebuchadnezzar carried awayH1540 JehoiachinH3078 to BabylonH894, as well asH853 the king’sH4428 motherH517, his wivesH802, his officialsH5631, and the leading menH853H193 of the landH776. He took themH1980 into exileH1473 from JerusalemH3389 to BabylonH894. 16The kingH4428 of BabylonH894 also broughtH935 into exileH1473 to BabylonH894 allH3605 sevenH7651 thousandH505 menH582 of valorH2428 and a thousandH505 craftsmenH2796 and metalsmithsH4525—allH3605 strongH1368 and fitH6213 for battleH4421.
