¹³ I will also spread My ^(A)net over him, and he shall be caught in My snare. ^(B)I will bring him to Babylon, to the land of the Chaldeans; yet he shall not see it, though he shall die there.

²⁰ I will ^(A)spread My net over him, and he shall be taken in My snare. I will bring him to Babylon and ^(B)try him there for the ^[a]treason which he committed against Me.

¹¹ And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, as his servants were besieging it.

Judah Overrun by Enemies

24 In ^(A)his days Nebuchadnezzar king of ^(B)Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his vassal for three years. Then he turned and rebelled against him. ^2 (C)And the Lord sent against him raiding ^[a]bands of Chaldeans, bands of Syrians, bands of Moabites, and bands of the people of Ammon; He sent them against Judah to destroy it, ^(D)according to the word of the Lord which He had spoken by His servants the prophets. ³ Surely at the commandment of the Lord this came upon Judah, to remove them from His sight ^(E)because of the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, ^4 (F)and also because of the innocent blood that he had shed; for he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, which the Lord would not pardon.

⁵ Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? ^6 (G)So Jehoiakim rested with his fathers. Then Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
