Jehoahaz's Reign and Captivity

31 (A)Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. His mother's name was (B)Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. 32 And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, (C)according to all that his fathers had done. 33 And (D)Pharaoh Neco put him in bonds at (E)Riblah in the land of (F)Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem, and laid on the land a tribute of a hundred talents[a] of silver and a talent of gold.
