This is the narrator's verdict on Zedekiah, the last king of Judah, installed by Nebuchadnezzar after the exile of Jehoiachin. The verse is a standard formula of judgment used throughout Kings, and it links Zedekiah to Jehoiakim, his brother, whose reign had already brought Babylon down on the land.
