Exegesis
The unusual infinitive pairing bə-māleḵ mimməlōḵ {במלך מִּמְּלֹ֖ךְ | bə-māleḵ mimməlōḵ} forms a purpose/result idea: Necho restrains him with the outcome that he does not exercise kingship, clarified by the final locator bi-yerûšālayim {בִּירוּשָׁלָ֑͏ִם | bi-yerûšālayim} ‘in Jerusalem’.
Root and etymology
