2. Chronicles 36 – Studienbibel

1 Then the people5971 of the land776 took3947 Jehoahaz3059 the son1121 of Josiah2977, and made him king4427 in his father's1 stead in Jerusalem3389. 2 Jehoahaz3099 was twenty6242 and three7969 years8141 old1121 when he began to reign4427, and he reigned4427 three7969 months2320 in Jerusalem3389. 3 And the king4428 of Egypt4714 put him down5493 at Jerusalem3389, and condemned6064 the land776 in an hundred3967 talents3603 of silver3701 and a talent3603 of gold2091.¹ 4 And the king4428 of Egypt4714 made Eliakim471 his brother251 king4427 over Judah3063 and Jerusalem3389, and turned5437 his name8034 to Jehoiakim3079. And Necho5224 took3947 Jehoahaz3099 his brother251, and carried935 him to Egypt4714. 5 Jehoiakim3079 was twenty6242 and five2568 years8141 old1121 when he began to reign4427, and he reigned4427 eleven259 6240 years8141 in Jerusalem3389: and he did6213 that which was evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 his God430. 6 Against him came up5927 Nebuchadnezzar5019 king4428 of Babylon894, and bound631 him in fetters5178, to carry3212 him to Babylon894.² 7 Nebuchadnezzar5019 also carried935 of the vessels3627 of the house1004 of the LORD3068 to Babylon894, and put5414 them in his temple1964 at Babylon894. 8 Now the rest3499 of the acts1697 of Jehoiakim3079, and his abominations8441 which he did6213, and that which was found4672 in him, behold, they are written3789 in the book5612 of the kings4428 of Israel3478 and Judah3063: and Jehoiachin3078 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.³ 9 Jehoiachin3078 was eight8083 years8141 old1121 when he began to reign4427, and he reigned4427 three7969 months2320 and ten6235 days3117 in Jerusalem3389: and he did6213 that which was evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068. 10 And when the year8141 was expired8666, king4428 Nebuchadnezzar5019 sent7971, and brought935 him to Babylon894, with the goodly2532 vessels3627 of the house1004 of the LORD3068, and made Zedekiah6667 his brother251 king4427 over Judah3063 and Jerusalem3389.⁴⁵⁶

11 Zedekiah6667 was one259 and twenty6242 years8141 old1121 when he began to reign4427, and reigned4427 eleven259 6240 years8141 in Jerusalem3389. 12 And he did6213 that which was evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 his God430, and humbled3665 not himself before6440 Jeremiah3414 the prophet5030 speaking from the mouth6310 of the LORD3068. 13 And he also rebelled4775 against king4428 Nebuchadnezzar5019, who had made him swear7650 by God430: but he stiffened7185 his neck6203, and hardened553 his heart3824 from turning7725 unto the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478. 14 Moreover all the chief8269 of the priests3548, and the people5971, transgressed4603 very4604 much7235 after all the abominations8441 of the heathen1471; and polluted2930 the house1004 of the LORD3068 which he had hallowed6942 in Jerusalem3389. 15 And the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers1 sent7971 to them by3027 his messengers4397, rising up betimes7925, and sending7971; because he had compassion2550 on his people5971, and on his dwelling place4583:⁷⁸ 16 But they mocked3931 the messengers4397 of God430, and despised959 his words1697, and misused8591 his prophets5030, until the wrath2534 of the LORD3068 arose5927 against his people5971, till there was no remedy4832.⁹ 17 Therefore he brought5927 upon them the king4428 of the Chaldees3778, who slew2026 their young men970 with the sword2719 in the house1004 of their sanctuary4720, and had no compassion2550 upon young man970 or maiden1330, old man2205, or him that stooped for age3486: he gave5414 them all into his hand3027. 18 And all the vessels3627 of the house1004 of God430, great1419 and small6996, and the treasures214 of the house1004 of the LORD3068, and the treasures214 of the king4428, and of his princes8269; all these he brought935 to Babylon894. 19 And they burnt8313 the house1004 of God430, and brake down5422 the wall2346 of Jerusalem3389, and burnt8313 all the palaces759 thereof with fire784, and destroyed7843 all the goodly4261 vessels3627 thereof. 20 And them that had escaped7611 from the sword2719 carried he away1540 to Babylon894; where they were servants5650 to him and his sons1121 until the reign4427 of the kingdom4438 of Persia6539:¹⁰ 21 To fulfil4390 the word1697 of the LORD3068 by the mouth6310 of Jeremiah3414, until the land776 had enjoyed7521 her sabbaths7676: for as long as3117 she lay desolate8074 she kept sabbath7673, to fulfil4390 threescore and ten7657 years8141.

22 Now in the first259 year8141 of Cyrus3566 king4428 of Persia6539, that the word1697 of the LORD3068 spoken by the mouth6310 of Jeremiah3414 might be accomplished3615, the LORD3068 stirred up5782 the spirit7307 of Cyrus3566 king4428 of Persia6539, that he made a proclamation5674 6963 throughout all his kingdom4438, and put it also in writing4385, saying559, 23 Thus saith559 Cyrus3566 king4428 of Persia6539, All the kingdoms4467 of the earth776 hath the LORD3068 God430 of heaven8064 given5414 me; and he hath charged6485 me to build1129 him an house1004 in Jerusalem3389, which is in Judah3063. Who is there among you of all his people5971? The LORD3068 his God430 be with him, and let him go up5927.
