Zedekiah becomes king and rebels against Babylon
Zedekiah became king of Jerusalem at the age of twenty-one and reigned for eleven years. He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, just as Jehoiakim had done. Because of the Lord's anger toward Jerusalem and Judah, he drove them from his presence, and Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Andra Kungaboken 24,18-20
18Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother's name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah, from Libnah.
בֶּן־עֶשְׂרִ֨ים וְאַחַ֤ת שָׁנָה֙ צִדְקִיָּ֣הוּ בְמָלְכ֔וֹ וְאַחַ֤ת עֶשְׂרֵה֙ שָׁנָ֔ה מָלַ֖ךְ בִּירוּשָׁלָ֑͏ִם וְשֵׁ֣ם אִמּ֔וֹ *חמיטל **חֲמוּטַ֥ל בַּֽת־יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ מִלִּבְנָֽה׃
19He did what was evil in the eyes of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.
וַיַּ֥עַשׂ הָרַ֖ע בְּעֵינֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה כְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂ֖ה יְהוֹיָקִֽים׃
20It was because of the LORD's anger that all this happened to Jerusalem and Judah, until he cast them out of his presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
כִּ֣י ׀ עַל־אַ֣ף יְהוָ֗ה הָיְתָ֤ה בִירוּשָׁלִַ֙ם֙ וּבִ֣יהוּדָ֔ה עַד־הִשְׁלִכ֥וֹ אֹתָ֖ם מֵעַ֣ל פָּנָ֑יו וַיִּמְרֹ֥ד צִדְקִיָּ֖הוּ בְּמֶ֥לֶךְ בָּבֶֽל׃ ס
