24 여호야김 시대에 바빌로니아의 느부갓네살왕이 유다를 침략하자 여 호야김왕은 항복하여 3년 동안 조공을 바치다가 그 후에 반기를 들었다.

여호와께서는 그의 종 예언자들을 통하여 말씀하신 대로 유다를 멸망시키려고 [a]바빌로니아와 [b]시리아와 모압과 그리고 암몬 군대를 보내 유다를 치게 하셨는데

3-4 이것은 여호와께서 명령하신 것이었다. 므낫세왕이 범한 모든 죄와 또 그가 죄 없는 사람들을 수없이 죽여 그 피로 예루살렘 거리를 물들게 한 그 모든 죄 때문에 여호와께서는 유다 백성을 자기 앞에서 추방하고 그 죄를 용서하려고 하시지 않았다.

그 밖에 여호야김이 행한 모든 일은 유다 왕들의 역사책에 기록되어 있다.

그는 죽어 자기 조상들 곁에 장사되었고 그의 아들 여호야긴이 왕위를 계승하였다.

그때 이후로 이집트 왕과 그 군대가 다시는 이집트 영토 밖으로 진출하지 못하였다. 이것은 바빌로니아 왕이 유프라테스강에서부터 이집트 북쪽 국경에 이르는 이집트의 모든 영토를 장악하고 있었기 때문이었다.

유다의 19대 왕 여호야긴

여호야긴은 18세에 왕위에 올라 예루살렘에서 석 달을 통치하였다. 그리고 그의 어머니는 예루살렘 사람 엘라단의 딸인 느후스다였다.

그는 자기 아버지의 모든 행위를 본받아 여호와께서 보시기에 악을 행하였다.

10 여호야긴이 왕으로 있을 당시 바빌로니아군이 유다를 침략하여 예루살렘성을 포위하였다.

11 그들이 예루살렘을 포위하고 있을 때 느부갓네살왕이 그 곳으로 오자

12 여호야긴왕은 그의 어머니와 모든 신하들과 함께 바빌로니아 왕에게 나아가서 항복하였다. 그 때는 느부갓네살왕 8년이었다. 그는 여호야긴을 포로로 잡아가고

13 성전과 궁전에 있는 모든 보물을 바빌론으로 가져갔으며 또 여호와께서 예언하신 대로 그는 솔로몬왕이 만든 성전의 모든 금그릇을 깨뜨려 버렸다.

14 그리고 느부갓네살왕이 모든 신하들과 용감한 군인들과 여러 분야의 기능공들을 포함하여 예루살렘에서 10,000명을 포로로 잡아갔으므로 그 땅에는 가난하고 보잘것없는 사람들만 남게 되었다.

15 이처럼 그는 여호야긴왕과 그의 어머니와 그의 아내들, 그리고 그의 신하들과 유다의 모든 지도급 인사들을 바빌론으로 잡아가고

16 또 가장 용감한 군인 7,000명과 기능공 1,000명을 잡아갔는데 그들은 모두 다 건장하여 전쟁터에서 잘 싸울 수 있는 사람들이었다.

17 그러고서 느부갓네살왕은 여호야긴의 삼촌 맛다냐를 대신 왕으로 세우고 그 이름을 시드기야로 고쳤다.

유다의 마지막 왕 (20대) 시드기야

18 시드기야는 21세에 왕위에 올라 예루살렘에서 11년을 통치하였다. 그리고 그의 어머니는 립나 사람 예레미야의 딸인 하무달이었다.

19 그는 여호야김의 모든 행위를 본받아 여호와께서 보시기에 악을 행하였다.

20 그래서 여호와께서는 예루살렘과 유다 백성에게 노하셔서 결국 그들을 자기 앞에서 추방해 버렸다. 그러나 시드기야는 바빌로니아 왕에게 반기를 들었다.

  2. 24:2 원문에는 ‘아람’

24 During Jehoiakim’s reign, Nebuchadnezzar(A) king of Babylon invaded(B) the land, and Jehoiakim became his vassal for three years. But then he turned against Nebuchadnezzar and rebelled.(C) The Lord sent Babylonian,[a](D) Aramean,(E) Moabite and Ammonite raiders(F) against him to destroy(G) Judah, in accordance with the word of the Lord proclaimed by his servants the prophets.(H) Surely these things happened to Judah according to the Lord’s command,(I) in order to remove them from his presence(J) because of the sins of Manasseh(K) and all he had done, including the shedding of innocent blood.(L) For he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the Lord was not willing to forgive.(M)

As for the other events of Jehoiakim’s reign,(N) and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? Jehoiakim rested(O) with his ancestors. And Jehoiachin(P) his son succeeded him as king.

The king of Egypt(Q) did not march out from his own country again, because the king of Babylon(R) had taken all his territory, from the Wadi of Egypt to the Euphrates River.

Jehoiachin King of Judah(S)

Jehoiachin(T) was eighteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Nehushta(U) daughter of Elnathan; she was from Jerusalem. He did evil(V) in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father had done.

10 At that time the officers of Nebuchadnezzar(W) king of Babylon advanced on Jerusalem and laid siege to it, 11 and Nebuchadnezzar himself came up to the city while his officers were besieging it. 12 Jehoiachin king of Judah, his mother, his attendants, his nobles and his officials all surrendered(X) to him.

In the eighth year of the reign of the king of Babylon, he took Jehoiachin prisoner. 13 As the Lord had declared,(Y) Nebuchadnezzar removed the treasures(Z) from the temple of the Lord and from the royal palace, and cut up the gold articles(AA) that Solomon(AB) king of Israel had made for the temple of the Lord. 14 He carried all Jerusalem into exile:(AC) all the officers and fighting men,(AD) and all the skilled workers and artisans—a total of ten thousand. Only the poorest(AE) people of the land were left.

15 Nebuchadnezzar took Jehoiachin(AF) captive to Babylon. He also took from Jerusalem to Babylon the king’s mother,(AG) his wives, his officials and the prominent people(AH) of the land. 16 The king of Babylon also deported to Babylon the entire force of seven thousand fighting men, strong and fit for war, and a thousand skilled workers and artisans.(AI) 17 He made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s uncle, king in his place and changed his name to Zedekiah.(AJ)

Zedekiah King of Judah(AK)

18 Zedekiah(AL) was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s name was Hamutal(AM) daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah. 19 He did evil(AN) in the eyes of the Lord, just as Jehoiakim had done. 20 It was because of the Lord’s anger that all this happened to Jerusalem and Judah, and in the end he thrust(AO) them from his presence.(AP)

The Fall of Jerusalem(AQ)(AR)(AS)

Now Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

  1. 2 Kings 24:2 Or Chaldean

24 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him.

And the Lord sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by his servants the prophets.

Surely at the commandment of the Lord came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did;

And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the Lord would not pardon.

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?

So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.

And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land: for the king of Babylon had taken from the river of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that pertained to the king of Egypt.

Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. And his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father had done.

10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.

11 And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants did besiege it.

12 And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.

13 And he carried out thence all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the Lord, as the Lord had said.

14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land.

15 And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his officers, and the mighty of the land, those carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.

16 And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.

17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father's brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.

18 Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

19 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

20 For through the anger of the Lord it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
