2 Chronicles 36:11

Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. Cf 2 Kings 24:18 to 2 Kings 25:21; Jeremiah 52. All the nobles, artisans, and craftsmen of the people having been removed, there remained only the laboring class and the farmers and gardeners.
