¶ The .xxiiii. Chapter:
¶ Iehoakim dyeth, Ierusalem is beseged of the Babylonians.
Iehoakim yeldeth hym selfe to the kyng
of Babylon. And in hys rowme came Mathaniah,
which was called Zedekiah.
A In hys dayes came Nabuchodonosor
kynge of Babylon vp, and
Iehoakim became hys seruaunt
thre yere, and then turned, and
rebelled agaynst hym. And the Lorde sent
vp&obar; him &rhand; men of warre from amonge the
Caldeys, from amonge the Syrians, out
of the Moabites, and from the chyldren of
Ammon: and sent them agaynst Iuda, to
destroye it, accordynge to the sayinge of the
Lorde, which he spake by hys seruauntes
the prophetes. Onely, at the byddynge of the
Lorde happened it so to Iuda, to put them
out of his syght, for the synnes of Manasse,
-- --
Nebuchadnezar.
accordynge to all that he dyd: and for the innocent
bloude that he shed, and fylled Ierusalem
with innocent bloude: and the Lorde
wolde not be reconcyled.
B The rest of the wordes that concerne Iehoakim,
∧ all that he dyd, are they not written
in the boke of the chronycles of the kynges
of Iuda? And so Iehoakim slepte &wt; hys
fathers: and note Iehoachin hys sonne raygned
in hys steade. And the kynge of Egipt
came nomore out of his lande: for the kynge
of Babyl&obar; had taken fr&obar; the ryuer of Egipt
vnto the ryuer of Euphrates, all þt; pertayned
to the kynge of Egipte. Iehoachin was
xviij. yere olde, ∧ raygned in Ierusalem thre
monethes. His mothers name also was Nehusta,
þe; daughter of Elnath&abar; of Ierusalem.
And he dyd þt; which was euell in the sight of
the Lorde, according to all as hys father had
done. noteIn that tyme came the seruauntes of
Nabuchadnezar kyng of Babil&obar; vp against
Ierusal&ebar;, ∧ the citye was beseged. And Nabuchadnezar
the king of Babyl&obar; came agaynst
the citye: ∧ his seruauntes dyd besege it.
C noteAnd Iehoachin þe; kyng of Iuda came out
to the kynge of Babyl&obar; he and hys mother,
hys seruauntes, hys lordes, and hys ch&abar;berlaynes.
And the kyng of Babilon toke him,
in the eyght yere of hys raygne.
noteAnd he caryed out thence all the treasures
of the house of the Lorde, ∧ the treasure
of the kynges house: and brake all the vessels
of golde, which Salomon kynge of Israel
had made in the temple of the Lorde, as the
Lorde had sayde. And he caryed awaye all
Ierusal&ebar;, and all the lordes, and all the str&obar;g
men of warre, euen .x.M. into captiuite: and
all craftes men and kepers, none remayning
saue the poore commen people of the lande.
D And he caryed awaye Iehoachin to Babylon,
and the kynges mother, and the kynges
wyues, his chamberlayns, and th&ebar; that
were myghty in the lande: those caryed he awaye
into captiuyte fr&obar; Ierusal&ebar; to Babil&obar;. note
And all the actiue m&ebar; of warre, euen .vij.M
and craftesmen, and porters .M. all þt; were
stronge and apte for warre, dyd the kinge of
Babilon bryng to Babilon captyue. noteAnd
the kynge of Babylon made Mathania hys
fathers brother, kynge in his steade, ∧ cha&ubar;ged
hys name to Zedekia.
noteZedekia was .xxj. yere olde when he beganne
to raygne, and he raygned eleu&ebar; yere
in Ierusalem. Hys mothers name also was
Hamital the daughter of Ieremia of Libna.
And he dyd euell in the syght of the Lord, accordynge
to all as Ichoachin had done. For
the wrath of the Lorde was moued agaynst
Ierusalem and Iuda, vntyll he cast th&ebar; out
of hys syght. And Zedekia rebelled agaynst
the kynge of Babylon.
