2 Chronicles 36
New International Version
36 1 And the people(A) of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah and made him king in Jerusalem in place of his father.
Jehoahaz King of Judah(B)
2 Jehoahaz[a] was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. 3 The king of Egypt dethroned him in Jerusalem and imposed on Judah a levy of a hundred talents[b] of silver and a talent[c] of gold. 4 The king of Egypt made Eliakim, a brother of Jehoahaz, king over Judah and Jerusalem and changed Eliakim’s name to Jehoiakim. But Necho(C) took Eliakim’s brother Jehoahaz and carried him off to Egypt.(D)
Jehoiakim King of Judah(E)
5 Jehoiakim(F) was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. He did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God. 6 Nebuchadnezzar(G) king of Babylon attacked him and bound him with bronze shackles to take him to Babylon.(H) 7 Nebuchadnezzar also took to Babylon articles from the temple of the Lord and put them in his temple[d] there.(I)
8 The other events of Jehoiakim’s reign, the detestable things he did and all that was found against him, are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah. And Jehoiachin his son succeeded him as king.
Jehoiachin King of Judah(J)
9 Jehoiachin(K) was eighteen[e] years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months and ten days. He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. 10 In the spring, King Nebuchadnezzar sent for him and brought him to Babylon,(L) together with articles of value from the temple of the Lord, and he made Jehoiachin’s uncle,[f] Zedekiah, king over Judah and Jerusalem.
Zedekiah King of Judah(M)
11 Zedekiah(N) was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. 12 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord(O) his God and did not humble(P) himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke the word of the Lord. 13 He also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him take an oath(Q) in God’s name. He became stiff-necked(R) and hardened his heart and would not turn to the Lord, the God of Israel. 14 Furthermore, all the leaders of the priests and the people became more and more unfaithful,(S) following all the detestable practices of the nations and defiling the temple of the Lord, which he had consecrated in Jerusalem.
The Fall of Jerusalem(T)(U)
15 The Lord, the God of their ancestors, sent word to them through his messengers(V) again and again,(W) because he had pity on his people and on his dwelling place. 16 But they mocked God’s messengers, despised his words and scoffed(X) at his prophets until the wrath(Y) of the Lord was aroused against his people and there was no remedy.(Z) 17 He brought up against them the king of the Babylonians,[g](AA) who killed their young men with the sword in the sanctuary, and did not spare young men(AB) or young women, the elderly or the infirm.(AC) God gave them all into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar.(AD) 18 He carried to Babylon all the articles(AE) from the temple of God, both large and small, and the treasures of the Lord’s temple and the treasures of the king and his officials. 19 They set fire(AF) to God’s temple(AG) and broke down the wall(AH) of Jerusalem; they burned all the palaces and destroyed(AI) everything of value there.(AJ)
20 He carried into exile(AK) to Babylon the remnant, who escaped from the sword, and they became servants(AL) to him and his successors until the kingdom of Persia came to power. 21 The land enjoyed its sabbath rests;(AM) all the time of its desolation it rested,(AN) until the seventy years(AO) were completed in fulfillment of the word of the Lord spoken by Jeremiah.
22 In the first year of Cyrus(AP) king of Persia, in order to fulfill the word of the Lord spoken by Jeremiah, the Lord moved the heart of Cyrus king of Persia to make a proclamation throughout his realm and also to put it in writing:
23 “This is what Cyrus king of Persia says:
“‘The Lord, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth and he has appointed(AQ) me to build a temple for him at Jerusalem in Judah. Any of his people among you may go up, and may the Lord their God be with them.’”

Nova Versão Transformadora
Jeoacaz reina em Judá
36 O povo da terra proclamou Jeoacaz, filho de Josias, como seu sucessor em Jerusalém. 2 Jeoacaz[a] tinha 23 anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou em Jerusalém por três meses.
3 Foi deposto pelo rei do Egito, que exigiu de Judá o pagamento de 3.500 quilos de prata e 35 quilos de ouro[b] como tributo.
Jeoaquim reina em Judá
4 O rei do Egito nomeou Eliaquim, irmão de Jeoacaz, rei sobre Judá e sobre Jerusalém, e mudou o nome dele para Jeoaquim. Depois, Neco levou Jeoacaz para o Egito como prisioneiro.
5 Jeoaquim tinha 25 anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou em Jerusalém por onze anos. Fez o que era mau aos olhos do Senhor, seu Deus.
6 Então Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, atacou Jerusalém e prendeu Jeoaquim com correntes de bronze. Depois, levou-o para a Babilônia. 7 Nabucodonosor também levou alguns dos tesouros do templo do Senhor e os colocou em seu palácio,[c] na Babilônia.
8 Os demais acontecimentos do reinado de Jeoaquim, incluindo todas as coisas detestáveis que fez e tudo que foi achado contra ele, estão registrados no Livro dos Reis de Israel e de Judá. Seu filho Joaquim foi seu sucessor.
Joaquim reina em Judá
9 Joaquim tinha 18 anos[d] quando começou a reinar, e reinou em Jerusalém por três meses e dez dias. Fez o que era mau aos olhos do Senhor.
10 Na virada do ano,[e] o rei Nabucodonosor levou Joaquim para a Babilônia. Nessa ocasião, também levou os tesouros do templo do Senhor. Nabucodonosor nomeou Zedequias, tio[f] de Joaquim, rei sobre Judá e sobre Jerusalém.
Zedequias reina em Judá
11 Zedequias tinha 21 anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou em Jerusalém por onze anos. 12 Zedequias fez o que era mau aos olhos do Senhor, seu Deus, e não se humilhou quando o profeta Jeremias lhe falou diretamente da parte do Senhor. 13 Também se rebelou contra o rei Nabucodonosor, embora lhe tivesse jurado lealdade em nome de Deus. Zedequias era um homem duro e teimoso e se recusou a voltar para o Senhor, o Deus de Israel.
14 Da mesma forma, todos os líderes dos sacerdotes e o povo se tornaram cada vez mais infiéis. Seguiram todas as práticas detestáveis das nações vizinhas e profanaram o templo do Senhor que havia sido consagrado em Jerusalém.
15 Repetidamente, o Senhor, o Deus de seus antepassados, enviou profetas para adverti-los, pois tinha compaixão de seu povo e do lugar de sua habitação. 16 No entanto, eles zombaram dos mensageiros de Deus e desprezaram suas palavras. Caçoaram dos profetas até que a ira do Senhor não pôde mais ser contida e nada mais se pôde fazer.
A queda de Jerusalém
17 Então o Senhor trouxe o rei da Babilônia contra eles. Os babilônios[g] mataram os jovens e foram atrás deles até dentro do santuário. Não tiveram piedade nem dos rapazes, nem das moças, nem dos idosos e doentes. Deus os entregou todos nas mãos do rei. 18 Ele levou para a Babilônia todos os utensílios, grandes e pequenos, do templo de Deus e todos os tesouros do templo do Senhor e do palácio do rei e de seus oficiais. 19 Seu exército queimou o templo de Deus, derrubou os muros de Jerusalém, queimou todos os palácios e destruiu tudo que era de valor.[h] 20 Os poucos habitantes que sobreviveram foram levados para o exílio na Babilônia e se tornaram servos do rei e de seus filhos, até que o reino da Pérsia conquistou o poder.
21 Cumpriu-se, desse modo, a mensagem do Senhor transmitida por Jeremias. A terra finalmente desfrutou seu descanso sabático e permaneceu desolada até que se completaram os setenta anos, conforme o profeta havia anunciado.
Ciro permite que os exilados regressem
22 No primeiro ano do reinado de Ciro, rei da Pérsia,[i] o Senhor cumpriu a profecia que havia anunciado por meio de Jeremias.[j] O Senhor despertou o coração de Ciro para registrar por escrito a seguinte proclamação e enviá-la a todo o seu reino:
23 “Assim diz Ciro, rei da Pérsia:
“O Senhor, o Deus dos céus, me deu todos os reinos da terra. Ele me encarregou de construir para ele um templo em Jerusalém, na terra de Judá. Quem pertence ao povo dele, volte para realizar essa tarefa. E que o Senhor, seu Deus, esteja com vocês!”.

2 Chronicles 36
King James Version
36 Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and made him king in his father's stead in Jerusalem.
2 Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
3 And the king of Egypt put him down at Jerusalem, and condemned the land in an hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
4 And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and turned his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5 Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord his God.
6 Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
7 Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of the Lord to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
8 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
9 Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
10 And when the year was expired, king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the goodly vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
12 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord his God, and humbled not himself before Jeremiah the prophet speaking from the mouth of the Lord.
13 And he also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart from turning unto the Lord God of Israel.
14 Moreover all the chief of the priests, and the people, transgressed very much after all the abominations of the heathen; and polluted the house of the Lord which he had hallowed in Jerusalem.
15 And the Lord God of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising up betimes, and sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place:
16 But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord arose against his people, till there was no remedy.
17 Therefore he brought upon them the king of the Chaldees, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man, or him that stooped for age: he gave them all into his hand.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes; all these he brought to Babylon.
19 And they burnt the house of God, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all the palaces thereof with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels thereof.
20 And them that had escaped from the sword carried he away to Babylon; where they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
21 To fulfil the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths: for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years.
22 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the Lord spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
23 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people? The Lord his God be with him, and let him go up.
