2 Chronicles 36:14-16
36:14 All the leaders of the priests and people became more unfaithful and committed the same horrible sins practiced by the nations.
They defiled the
Lord’s temple which he had consecrated in Jerusalem.
The Babylonians Destroy Jerusalem
36:15 The Lord God of their ancestors continually warned them through his messengers, for he felt compassion for his people and his dwelling place.
36:16 But they mocked God’s messengers, despised his warnings, and ridiculed his prophets. Finally the Lord got very angry at his people and there was no one who could prevent his judgment.
