2 Kings 24:14-20
New International Version
14 He carried all Jerusalem into exile:(A) all the officers and fighting men,(B) and all the skilled workers and artisans—a total of ten thousand. Only the poorest(C) people of the land were left.
15 Nebuchadnezzar took Jehoiachin(D) captive to Babylon. He also took from Jerusalem to Babylon the king’s mother,(E) his wives, his officials and the prominent people(F) of the land. 16 The king of Babylon also deported to Babylon the entire force of seven thousand fighting men, strong and fit for war, and a thousand skilled workers and artisans.(G) 17 He made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s uncle, king in his place and changed his name to Zedekiah.(H)
Zedekiah King of Judah(I)
18 Zedekiah(J) was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s name was Hamutal(K) daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah. 19 He did evil(L) in the eyes of the Lord, just as Jehoiakim had done. 20 It was because of the Lord’s anger that all this happened to Jerusalem and Judah, and in the end he thrust(M) them from his presence.(N)
The Fall of Jerusalem(O)(P)(Q)
Now Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

2 Kings 24:14-20
King James Version
14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land.
15 And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his officers, and the mighty of the land, those carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
16 And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father's brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
18 Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
19 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
20 For through the anger of the Lord it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
