The king of Babylon makes Mattaniah king and changes his name to Zedekiah, and Zedekiah rebels against the king of Babylon

바벨론 왕이 맛다니야로 왕을 삼아 그 이름을 고쳐 시드기야라 하고 시드기야가 바벨론 왕을 배반함

2 Kings 24:17–20: the king of Babylon makes Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s father’s brother, king in his place, and changes his name to Zedekiah. The text says, “Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done. For through the anger of the LORD, this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence.” Then Zedekiah rebels against the king of Babylon. The Korean Revised Version spells Hamutal’s father 예레먀 (24:18); it names Zedekiah at 24:19, where WEB reads “He”, and names the LORD as the one who casts them out (여호와께서 … 쫓아내실 때까지), where WEB reads “until he had cast them out” (24:20).
