11 (C)Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. 12 He did evil in the sight of the Lord his God; (D)he did not humble himself (E)before Jeremiah the prophet [a]who spoke for the Lord. 13 (F)He also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar who had made him swear allegiance by God. But (G)he stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against turning to the Lord God of Israel.
