2 And he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that he had done Jehoiakim.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

3 For - on [the] anger of Yahweh it happened in Jerusalem and Judah until cast out he them from on face his and he rebelled Zedekiah against [the] king of Babylon.

For through the anger of the LORD did it come to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence: and Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
