2 Chronicles 36:6-12 Amplified Bible (AMP)

6. Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and bound him in fetters to take 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 or palace there.

8. Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and the abominations which he did, and what was found against 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[een] years old then; he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem. He did evil in the Lord's sight. [II Kings 24:8.]

10. In the spring, King Nebuchadnezzar sent and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Zedekiah the [boy's] brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.

11. Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.

12. He did evil in the sight of the Lord his God and did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke at the dictation of the Lord.
