2. Kongebok 24,18

HamutalJeremiahZedekiahJerusalemLibnah

16 Og alle de tapre mennene, syv tusen, og håndverkerne og smedene, ett tusen, alle sterke og skikket for krig, disse førte kongen av Babylon i eksil til Babylon.

17 Så utnevnte kongen av Babylon Mattanja, Jojakins onkel, til konge, og forandret hans navn til Sidkia.

Sidkia var tjueen år gammel da han ble konge, og han regjerte elleve år i Jerusalem. Hans mor var Hamutal, datter av Jeremia fra Libna.

19 Han handlet ondt i Herrens øyne, etter Jojakims veier.

20 For det var på grunn av Herrens vrede at dette skjedde i Jerusalem og Juda, inntil Han kastet dem ut fra sitt nærvær. Og Sidkia gjorde opprør mot kongen av Babylon.
