2 Kings 24:1-4

24:1 During Jehoiakim’s reign,¹ King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon attacked.² Jehoiakim was his subject for three years, but then he rebelled against him.³ 24:2 The Lord sent against him Babylonian, Syrian, Moabite, and Ammonite raiding bands; he sent them to destroy Judah, as he had warned he would do through his servants the prophets.⁴ 24:3 Just as the Lord had announced, he rejected Judah because of all the sins which Manasseh had committed.⁵ 24:4 Because he killed innocent people and stained Jerusalem with their blood, the Lord was unwilling to forgive them.⁶

¹tn Heb “In his days.”

²tn Heb “came up.” Perhaps an object (“against him”) has been accidentally omitted from the text. See M. Cogan and H. Tadmor, II Kings (AB), 306.

³tn The Hebrew text has “and he turned and rebelled against him.”

⁴tn Heb “he sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by the hand of his servants the prophets.”

⁵tn Heb “Certainly according to the word of the Lord this happened against Judah, to remove [them] from his face because of the sins of Manasseh according to all which he did.”

⁶tn Heb “and also the blood of the innocent which he shed, and he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the Lord was not willing to forgive.”
