2 Kings 24:1-10

1In his daysH3117 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH1961 upH5927, and JehoiakimH3079 becameH1961 his servantH5650 threeH7969 yearsH8141: then he turnedH7725 and rebelledH4775 againstH5927 him.

2And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 againstH1696 him bandsH1416 of the ChaldeansH3778, and bandsH1416 of the Syrians, and bandsH1416 of the MoabitesH4124, and bandsH1416 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and sentH7971 them againstH1696 JudahH3063 to destroyH6 it, accordingH3027 to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, whichH834 he spake by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.

3SurelyH389 at the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 this uponH5921 JudahH3063, to removeH5493 them outH6440 of his sightH6440, for the sinsH2403 of ManassehH4519, accordingH5921 to allH3605 that he didH6213;

4and also for the innocentH5355 bloodH1818 that he shedH8210; for he filledH4390 JerusalemH3389 with innocentH5355 bloodH1818: and the LORDH3068 would notH3808 pardonH5545.

5NowH3117 the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JehoiakimH3079, and allH3605 that he didH6213, are they notH3808 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063?

6So JehoiakimH3079 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1: and JehoiachinH3078 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his steadH8478.

7And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 cameH1961 notH3808 againH5750 anyH3605 moreH5750 outH3318 of his landH776: for the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had takenH3947, from the brookH5158 of EgyptH4714 unto the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578, allH3605 that pertained to the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714.

8JehoiachinH3078 was eighteenH6240 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427; and he reignedH4427 in JerusalemH3389 threeH7969 monthsH2320: and his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was Nehushta the daughterH1323 of ElnathanH494 of JerusalemH3389.

9And he didH6213 that whichH834 was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, according to allH3605 that his fatherH1 had doneH6213.

10At that time the servantsH5650 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935 upH5927 to JerusalemH3389, and the cityH5892 was besiegedH4692.
