2 Chronicles 36:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Concerning the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and [a]that which was found upon 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 [b]eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and did evil in the sight of the Lord.
10 And when the year was out, king Nebuchadnezzar sent and brought him to Babel, with the precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and he made Zedekiah his [c]brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
