Then the peopleH5971 of the landH776 tookH3947 JehoahazH3059 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977, and made him kingH4427 in his father'sH1 stead in JerusalemH3389.
JehoahazH3099 was twentyH6242 and threeH7969 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 threeH7969 monthsH2320 in JerusalemH3389.
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 put him downH5493 at JerusalemH3389, and condemnedH6064 the landH776 in an hundredH3967 talentsH3603 of silverH3701 and a talentH3603 of goldH2091. {put…: Heb. removed him}
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 made EliakimH471 his brotherH251 kingH4427 over JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, and turnedH5437 his nameH8034 to JehoiakimH3079. And NechoH5224 tookH3947 JehoahazH3099 his brotherH251, and carriedH935 him to EgyptH4714.
JehoiakimH3079 was twentyH6242 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389: and he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430.
Against him came upH5927 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and boundH631 him in fettersH5178, to carryH3212 him to BabylonH894. {fetters: or, chains}
NebuchadnezzarH5019 also carriedH935 of the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 to BabylonH894, and putH5414 them in his templeH1964 at BabylonH894.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JehoiakimH3079, and his abominationsH8441 which he didH6213, and that which was foundH4672 in him, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063: and JehoiachinH3078 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. {Jehoiachin: or, Jeconiah, I.Chro.3.16. or, Coniah ier.22.24.}
JehoiachinH3078 was eightH8083 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 threeH7969 monthsH2320 and tenH6235 daysH3117 in JerusalemH3389: and he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
And when the yearH8141 was expiredH8666, kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019 sentH7971, and broughtH935 him to BabylonH894, with the goodlyH2532 vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and made ZedekiahH6667 his brotherH251 kingH4427 over JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389. {when…: Heb. at the return of the year} {goodly…: Heb. vessels of desire} {Zedekiah…: or, Mattaniah, his father's brother}
ZedekiahH6667 was oneH259 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and humbledH3665 not himself beforeH6440 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 speaking from the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068.
And he also rebelledH4775 against kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019, who had made him swearH7650 by GodH430: but he stiffenedH7185 his neckH6203, and hardenedH553 his heartH3824 from turningH7725 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
Moreover all the chiefH8269 of the priestsH3548, and the peopleH5971, transgressedH4603 veryH4604 muchH7235 after all the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471; and pollutedH2930 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 which he had hallowedH6942 in JerusalemH3389.
And the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1 sentH7971 to them byH3027 his messengersH4397, rising up betimesH7925, and sendingH7971; because he had compassionH2550 on his peopleH5971, and on his dwelling placeH4583: {by: Heb. by the hand of} {betimes: that is, continually and carefully}
But they mockedH3931 the messengersH4397 of GodH430, and despisedH959 his wordsH1697, and misusedH8591 his prophetsH5030, until the wrathH2534 of the LORDH3068 aroseH5927 against his peopleH5971, till there was no remedyH4832. {remedy: Heb. healing}
Therefore he broughtH5927 upon them the kingH4428 of the ChaldeesH3778, who slewH2026 their young menH970 with the swordH2719 in the houseH1004 of their sanctuaryH4720, and had no compassionH2550 upon young manH970 or maidenH1330, old manH2205, or him that stooped for ageH3486: he gaveH5414 them all into his handH3027.
And all the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, greatH1419 and smallH6996, and the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the kingH4428, and of his princesH8269; all these he broughtH935 to BabylonH894.
And they burntH8313 the houseH1004 of GodH430, and brake downH5422 the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389, and burntH8313 all the palacesH759 thereof with fireH784, and destroyedH7843 all the goodlyH4261 vesselsH3627 thereof.
And them that had escapedH7611 from the swordH2719 carried he awayH1540 to BabylonH894; where they were servantsH5650 to him and his sonsH1121 until the reignH4427 of the kingdomH4438 of PersiaH6539: {them…: Heb. the remainder from the sword}
To fulfilH4390 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 by the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414, until the landH776 had enjoyedH7521 her sabbathsH7676: for as long asH3117 she lay desolateH8074 she kept sabbathH7673, to fulfilH4390 threescore and tenH7657 yearsH8141.
Now in the firstH259 yearH8141 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 spoken by the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414 might be accomplishedH3615, the LORDH3068 stirred upH5782 the spiritH7307 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, that he made a proclamationH5674+H6963 throughout all his kingdomH4438, and put it also in writingH4385, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, All the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 hath the LORDH3068 GodH430 of heavenH8064 givenH5414 me; and he hath chargedH6485 me to buildH1129 him an houseH1004 in JerusalemH3389, which is in JudahH3063. Who is there among you of all his peopleH5971? The LORDH3068 his GodH430 be with him, and let him go upH5927.

In his daysH3117 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 came upH5927, and JehoiakimH3079 became his servantH5650 threeH7969 yearsH8141: then he turnedH7725 and rebelledH4775 against him.
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 against him bandsH1416 of the ChaldeesH3778, and bandsH1416 of the SyriansH758, and bandsH1416 of the MoabitesH4124, and bandsH1416 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and sentH7971 them against JudahH3063 to destroyH6 it, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 byH3027 his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030. {by: Heb. by the hand of}
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JehoiakimH3079, and all that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063?
So JehoiakimH3079 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1: and JehoiachinH3078 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
And he carried outH3318 thence all the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and cut in piecesH7112 all the vesselsH3627 of goldH2091 which SolomonH8010 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 had madeH6213 in the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, as the LORDH3068 had saidH1696.
And he carried awayH1540 all JerusalemH3389, and all the princesH8269, and all the mighty menH1368 of valourH2428, even tenH6235 thousandH505 captivesH1540, and all the craftsmenH2796 and smithsH4525: none remainedH7604, saveH2108 the poorest sortH1803 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
And he carried awayH1540 JehoiachinH3078 to BabylonH894, and the king'sH4428 motherH517, and the king'sH4428 wivesH802, and his officersH5631, and the mightyH352+H193 of the landH776, those carriedH3212 he into captivityH1473 from JerusalemH3389 to BabylonH894. {officers: or, eunuchs}
And all the menH582 of mightH2428, even sevenH7651 thousandH505, and craftsmenH2796 and smithsH4525 a thousandH505, all that were strongH1368 and aptH6213 for warH4421, even them the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 broughtH935 captiveH1473 to BabylonH894.
And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 made MattaniahH4983 his father's brotherH1730 kingH4427 in his stead, and changedH5437 his nameH8034 to ZedekiahH6667.
ZedekiahH6667 was twentyH6242 and oneH259 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was HamutalH2537, the daughterH1323 of JeremiahH3414 of LibnahH3841.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, according to all that JehoiakimH3079 had doneH6213.
For through the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 it came to pass in JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063, until he had cast them outH7993 from his presenceH6440, that ZedekiahH6667 rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
Now when she sawH7200 that she had waitedH3176, and her hopeH8615 was lostH6, then she tookH3947 anotherH259 of her whelpsH1482, and madeH7760 him a young lionH3715.
And he went up and downH1980 amongH8432 the lionsH738, he became a young lionH3715, and learnedH3925 to catchH2963 the preyH2964, and devouredH398 menH120.
And he knewH3045 their desolate palacesH490, and he laid wasteH2717 their citiesH5892; and the landH776 was desolateH3456, and the fulnessH4393 thereof, by the noiseH6963 of his roaringH7581. {their desolate…: or, their widows} {the fulness…: or, all it containeth}
Then the nationsH1471 setH5414 against him on every sideH5439 from the provincesH4082, and spreadH6566 their netH7568 over him: he was takenH8610 in their pitH7845.
And they putH5414 him in wardH5474 in chainsH2397, and broughtH935 him to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894: they broughtH935 him into holdsH4685, that his voiceH6963 should no more be heardH8085 upon the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478. {in chains: or, in hooks}
In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 cameH935 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 unto JerusalemH3389, and besiegedH6696 it.
And the LordH136 gaveH5414 JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 into his handH3027, with partH7117 of the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of GodH430: which he carriedH935 into the landH776 of ShinarH8152 to the houseH1004 of his godH430; and he broughtH935 the vesselsH3627 into the treasureH214 houseH1004 of his godH430.
BeholdH7200 ye among the heathenH1471, and regardH5027, and wonderH8539 marvellouslyH8539: for I will workH6466 a workH6467 in your daysH3117, which ye will not believeH539, though it be toldH5608 you.
For, lo, I raise upH6965 the ChaldeansH3778, that bitterH4751 and hastyH4116 nationH1471, which shall marchH1980 through the breadthH4800 of the landH776, to possessH3423 the dwellingplacesH4908 that are not theirs. {breadth: Heb. breadths}
They are terribleH366 and dreadfulH3372: their judgmentH4941 and their dignityH7613 shall proceedH3318 of themselves. {their judgment…: or, from them shall proceed the judgment of these, and the captivity of these}
Their horsesH5483 also are swifterH7043 than the leopardsH5246, and are more fierceH2300 than the eveningH6153 wolvesH2061: and their horsemenH6571 shall spreadH6335 themselves, and their horsemenH6571 shall comeH935 from farH7350; they shall flyH5774 as the eagleH5404 that hastethH2363 to eatH398. {fierce: Heb. sharp}
They shall comeH935 all for violenceH2555: their facesH6440 shall sup upH4041 as the east windH6921, and they shall gatherH622 the captivityH7628 as the sandH2344. {their…: or, the supping up of their faces, etc: or, their faces shall look (Heb. the opposition of their faces) toward the east}
And they shall scoffH7046 at the kingsH4428, and the princesH7336 shall be a scornH4890 unto them: they shall derideH7832 every strong holdH4013; for they shall heapH6651 dustH6083, and takeH3920 it.
