6So Jehoiakim went to rest with his fathers; and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
7And the king of Egypt did not come out of his land again, for the king of Babylon had taken all his country, from the stream of Egypt to the river Euphrates.
8Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months, and his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
9He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done.
10At that time the armies of Nebuchadnezzar came up to Jerusalem and the town was shut in on every side.
11And Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came there, while his servants were shutting in the town;
12Then Jehoiachin, king of Judah, went out to the king of Babylon, with his mother and his servants and his chiefs and his unsexed servants; and in the eighth year of his rule the king of Babylon took him.
