The King James Version Bible

2 Kings 24:3-7

  1. Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did;

  2. And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon.

  3. Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

  4. So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.

  5. And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land: for the king of Babylon had taken from the river of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that pertained to the king of Egypt.
