1 The people therfore of the land tooke Ioachaz the
sonne of Iosias, and made him king for his father in Ierusalem.
2 Three and twentie yeares old was Ioachaz, when
he began to reigne, and he reigned three monethes in Ierusalem.
3 And the king of Ægypt when he came into Ierusalem,
deposed him, and condemned the land in an hundred
talentes of siluer, and a talent of gold.
4 And he made Eliakim
notehis brother king for him, ouer Iuda and Ierusalem: and
he turned his name Ioakim: but he tooke Ioachaz himself
with him, and caried him away into Ægypt.
5 Fiue and
twentie yeares old was Ioakim when he began to reigne, and
he reigned eleuen yeares in Ierusalem: and he did euil before
our Lord his God.
6 Agaynst him came vp Nabuchodonosor
the king of the Chaldees, and brought him bound in chaynes
into Babylon.
7 Whither he transported also the vessels of
our Lord, and put them in his temple.
8 But the rest of the
wordes of Ioakim, and of his abominations, which he
wrought, and the thinges that were found in him, are conteyned
in the Booke of the kinges of Iuda and Israel. And
Ioachin his sonne reigned for him.
9 Eight yeares old was Ioachin
when he began to reigne, and he reigned three monethes
and ten dayes in Ierusalem, and he did euil in the sight
of our Lord.
10 And when the compasse of a yeare was come
about, Nabuchodonosor the king sent some, that brought
him in to Babylon, the most precious vessels of the house of
our Lord being caried away withal: But he made Sedecias
his vncle king ouer Iuda and Ierusalem.
11 One & twentie
yeares old was Sedecias when he began to reigne: & he reigned
eleuen yeares in Ierusalem.
12 And he did euil in the eies

of our Lord his God, neither did he reuerence the face of Ieremie
the prophet speaking to him from the mouth of our Lord
13 He reuolted also from king Nabuchodonosor, who had adiured
him by God: & he hardened his necke & his hart, that
he would not returne to our Lord the God of Israel.
14 Yea &
al the chiefe of the Priestes, and the people transgressed vnlawfully
according to al the abominations of the Gentiles:
and they polluted the house of our Lord, which he had sanctified
to him in Ierusalem.
15 And our Lord the God of their
fathers sent to them, by the hand of his messengers, rysing
by night, and daily admonishing them: for that he spared his
people and his habitation.
16 But they mocked the messengers
of God, and litle estemed his wordes, and scorned the
prophetes, vntil the furie of our Lord ascended vpon his
people, and there was no amendment.
17 For he brought
vpon them the king of the Chaldees, and slewe their yong
men with the sword in the house of his sanctuarie, he pitied
not yong man, and virgin, and old man, no neither him that
stouped for age, but he deliuered al into his handes.
18 And al
the vessels of the house of our Lord, as wel greater as lesser,
and the treasures of the temple, and of the king, and the princes
he transported into Babylon.
19 The enemies set fyre on
the house of God, and destroyed the wal of Ierusalem, al the
towres they burnt, and what soeuer was pretious, they destroyed.
20 If anie man escaped the sword, being led into Babylon
he serued the king and his sonnes, til the king of the
Persians reigned.
21 That the word of our Lord by the mouth
of Ieremie might be accomplished, and the land might celebrate
their Sabbathes: for al the daies of the desolation
she kept a Sabbath, til the seuentie yeares were expyred.
22 But in note the first yeare of Cyrus king of Persians, to fulfil the
word of our Lord, which he had spoken by the mouth of Ieremie,
our Lord raysed vp the spirit of Cyrus king of the
Persians: who commanded to be proclaymed in al his kingdom,
yea by writing, saying:
23 Thus sayth Cyrus king of the
Persians: Al kingdomes of the earth hath the Lord the God
of heauen geuen me, and he hath commanded me that I
should build him a house in Ierusalem, which is in Iewrie:
who of you is there in al his people? The Lord his God be
with him, and let him goe vp.
