2 KINGS 24:6 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.”
So Jehoiakim slept with his ancestors; and his son Jehoiachin succeeded him — Jehoiakim dies (or is perhaps removed from power) and his son Jehoiachin succeeds him. The formula 'slept with his ancestors' traditionally indicated peaceful death, though Jehoiakim may have been deposed or died during siege conditions.
