II Chronicles 36 Jehoiachin Reigns

 II Chronicles 36

Jehoiachin Reigns

5 Jehoiachin was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem, and did evil in the sight of the Lord his God.

6 Then Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against him, and bound him with fetters, to carry him to Babylon.

7 Nebuchadnezzar also took some of the vessels of the house of the Lord to Babylon, and put them in his temple in Babylon.

8 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiachin, and his abominations which he did, and all that was found in him, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.

9 Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned in Jerusalem three months and ten days, and did evil in the sight of the Lord.

10 And at the end of the year King Nebuchadnezzar sent and had him taken to Babylon, with the most precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and he made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
