2 Kings 24:3-5
EasyEnglish Bible
3 The Lord had said that these things must happen. He had decided to send Judah away from himself because of the sins that King Manasseh had done. 4 Manasseh had murdered people who had not done anything wrong. Their blood was in the streets of Jerusalem. The Lord would not agree to forgive Manasseh for his sins.
5 The other things that happened while Jehoiakim was king are written in a book. The book is called ‘The history of Judah's kings’. It tells about the things that Jehoiakim did.
