15 Também levou cativo Joaquim à Babilônia, assim como a mãe do rei, as mulheres do rei, os seus eunucos, e os poderosos daquela terra; cativos os levou de Jerusalém à Babilônia.

16 A todos os homens de guerra, que foram sete mil, e aos oficiais e ferreiros, que foram mil, e a todos os valentes para fazer a guerra, levou cativos o rei da Babilônia.

17 E o rei da Babilônia pôs como rei em lugar de Joaquim a Matanias, tio dele, e mudou-lhe o nome para Zedequias.

18 De vinte e um anos era Zedequias quando começou a reinar, e reinou em Jerusalém onze anos. O nome de sua mãe foi Hamutal filha de Jeremias, de Libna.
