The Fall of Jerusalem

1 (A)Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was (a)(B)Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of (C)Libnah. 2 He did (D)evil in the sight of the Lord like all that (E)Jehoiakim had done. 3 For through the (F)anger of the Lord this came about in Jerusalem and Judah until He cast them out from His presence. And Zedekiah (G)rebelled against the king of Babylon.
