2 Kings 24:3-4

3 Just as the Lord had announced, he rejected Judah because of all the sins which Manasseh had committed. ^{▼▼ Heb “Certainly according to the word of the Lord this happened against Judah, to remove [them] from his face because of the sins of Manasseh according to all which he did.”} 4 Because he killed innocent people and stained Jerusalem with their blood, the Lord was unwilling to forgive them. ^{▼▼ Heb “and also the blood of the innocent which he shed, and he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the Lord was not willing to forgive.”}
