1 In the fifth month of that same year, the fourth year, near the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah (YHWH is righteous) of Judah (praised), the prophet Hananiah (God has favored) son of Azzur (he that assists), who was from Gibeon (hill city), said to me in the house of the LORD {YHWH} in the presence of the priests and all the people: 2 “This is what the LORD {YHWH} of Hosts, the God {Elohe} of Israel (he wrestles with God), says: ‘I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon (confusion by mixing). 3 Within two years I will restore to this place all the articles of the house of the LORD {YHWH} that Nebuchadnezzar (may Nebo protect the crown) king of Babylon (confusion by mixing) removed from here and carried to Babylon. 4 And I will restore to this place Jeconiah (Jehoiachin) son of Jehoiakim (YHWH raises up) king of Judah (praised), along with all the exiles from Judah who went to Babylon (confusion by mixing),’ declares the LORD {YHWH}, ‘for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’” Jeremiah 28:1-4, Berean Annotated Bible.
