2 Kings 24:15-17

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁵ He likewise carried Jehoiachin away to Babylon and the king’s mother and the king’s wives and his officers, and the mighty of the land; he carried them all into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.

¹⁶ All the men of might, which were seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths which were one thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, 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.
