2 Chronicles 36
36
1Then the people of the land took Y’ho’achaz [Yehovah has seized] the son of Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals], and made him king in his father’s stead in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
2Y’ho’achaz [Yehovah has seized] [was] twenty and three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
3And the king of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place] put him down at Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], and condemned the land in an hundred talents of silver and a talent (weight of money; weight; gift) of gold.
4And the king of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place] made Elyakim [God sets up] his brother king over Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], and turned his name to Y’hoyakim [Yehovah raises up]. And N’kho [lame] took Y’ho’achaz [Yehovah has seized] his brother, and carried him to Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place].
5Y’hoyakim [Yehovah raises up] [was] twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: and he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) his God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
6Against him came up N’vukhadnetzar [May Nebo protect the crown] king of Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion], and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion].
7N’vukhadnetzar [May Nebo protect the crown] also carried of the vessels of the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) to Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion], and put them in his temple at Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion].
8Now the rest of the acts of Y’hoyakim [Yehovah raises up], and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, behold, they [are] written in the book of the kings of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] and Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]: and Y’hoyakhin [Yehovah establishes] his son reigned in his stead.
9Y’hoyakhin [Yehovah establishes] [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: and he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
10And when the year was expired, king N’vukhadnetzar [May Nebo protect the crown] sent, and brought him to Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion], with the goodly vessels of the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and made Tzidkiyah [Yehovah is righteous] his brother king over Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
11Tzidkiyah [Yehovah is righteous] [was] one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned eleven years in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
12And he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) his God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], [and] humbled not himself before Yirmeyahu [whom Yehovah has appointed] the prophet [speaking] from the mouth of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
13And he also rebelled against king N’vukhadnetzar [May Nebo protect the crown], who had made him swear by God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart from turning unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God].
14Moreover all the chief of the priests, and the people, transgressed very much after all the abominations of the heathen; and polluted the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) which he had consecrated in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
15And the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising up early, and sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place:
16But they mocked the messengers of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) arose against his people, till [there was] no remedy.
17Therefore he brought upon them the king of the Kasdim [clod-breakers] [clod-breakers], who killed their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or virgin, old man, or him that stooped for age: he gave [them] all into his hand.
18And all the vessels of the house of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], great and small, and the treasures of the house of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and the treasures of the king, and of his princes; all [these] he brought to Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion].
19And they burnt the house of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and broke down the wall of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], and burnt all the palaces thereof with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels thereof.
20And them that had escaped from the sword carried he away to Bavel (to jumble, or a confused medley of sounds; confusion; gate of the deity) (Babylon) [confusion]; where they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Paras (Persia) [pure or splendid]:
21To fulfil the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) by the mouth of Yirmeyahu [whom Yehovah has appointed], until the land had enjoyed her Shabbat: [for] as long as she lay desolate she kept Shabbat [Rest], to fulfil threescore and ten years.
22Now in the first year of Koresh (Cyrus) [possess you the furnace] king of Paras (Persia) [pure or splendid], that the word of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) [spoken] by the mouth of Yirmeyahu [whom Yehovah has appointed] might be accomplished, the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) stirred up the spirit of Koresh (Cyrus) [possess you the furnace] king of Paras (Persia) [pure or splendid], that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and [put it] also in writing, saying,
23Thus says Koresh (Cyrus) [possess you the furnace] king of Paras (Persia) [pure or splendid], All the kingdoms of the earth has the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of heaven given me; and he has charged me to build him an house in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], which [is] in Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]. Who [is there] among you of all his people? The Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) his God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] [be] with him, and let him go up.

2 Chronicles 36
36
1Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and made him king in his father’s stead in Jerusalem. 2Joahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. 3And the king of Egypt deposed him at Jerusalem, and fined the land a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold. 4And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And Neco took Joahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah his God. 6Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon. 7Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of Jehovah to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon. 8Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which 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.
9Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah. 10And at the return of the year king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the goodly vessels of the house of Jehovah, and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: 12and he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah his God; he humbled not himself before Jeremiah the prophet speaking from the mouth of Jehovah. 13And he also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart against turning unto Jehovah, the God of Israel. 14Moreover all the chiefs of the priests, and the people, trespassed very greatly after all the abominations of the nations; and they polluted the house of Jehovah which he had hallowed in Jerusalem. 15And Jehovah, the God of their fathers, sent to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending, because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling-place: 16but they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and scoffed at his prophets, until the wrath of Jehovah arose against his people, till there was no remedy.
17Therefore he brought upon them the king of the Chaldeans, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or virgin, old man or hoary-headed: he gave them all into his hand. 18And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes, all these he brought to Babylon. 19And they burnt the house of God, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all the palaces thereof with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels thereof. 20And them that had escaped from the sword carried he away to Babylon; and they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia: 21to fulfil the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its sabbaths: for as long as it lay desolate it kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years.
22Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying, 23Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath Jehovah, the God of heaven, given me; and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whosoever there is among you of all his people, Jehovah his God be with him, and let him go up.
