2 Kings 24:2-5
2 Kings 24:2-5 NCV
The LORD sent raiding parties from Babylon, Aram, Moab, and Ammon against Jehoiakim to destroy Judah. This happened as the LORD had said it would through his servants the prophets. The LORD commanded this to happen to the people of Judah, to remove them from his presence, because of all the sins of Manasseh. He had killed many innocent people and had filled Jerusalem with their blood. And the LORD would not forgive these sins. The other things that happened while Jehoiakim was king and all he did are written in the book of the history of the kings of Judah.
