2 Kings 24:2-4

New American Standard Bible

² And the Lord sent against him ^(A)bands of Chaldeans, ^(B)bands of Arameans, ^(C)bands of Moabites, and bands of Ammonites. He sent them against Judah to destroy it, ^(D)in accordance with the word of the Lord which He had spoken through His servants the prophets. ^3 (E)It indeed came upon Judah at the ^[a]command of the Lord, to remove them from His sight ^(F)due to the sins of Manasseh, in accordance with everything that he had done, ⁴ and ^(G)also for the innocent blood which he shed, for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; and the Lord was unwilling to forgive.
